“They’re both doing fine,” Adler said. “I saw and said goodbye to the moms.”
Staff at La Petite Academy later told Adler that the driver of the white SUV that had crashed into the school was a grandmother who had come to pick up a student.
“I’m guessing she meant to reverse, and pushed the wrong button,” Adler said.
Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station, confirmed on Tuesday that a female adult had been cited for unlicensed driving as a result of the crash, but was not taken into custody, nor found to be under the influence of any sort of controlled substance.
