“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.
The suspect reportedly fled the car on foot, and was later discovered in a “muddy trench.”
“We had a visual of the suspect walking on the Freeway near Templin,” said CHP Officer Josh Greengard. “The suspect ran from us.”
Andres Jimenez, 22, of Pacoima, was arrested for taking a vehicle without the owner’s consent, and has been released on bond as of Wednesday morning.
After taking the suspect into custody, officials found paperwork that showed the suspect was arrested for being in a stolen vehicle a few days ago, said Deputy Arriaga.
The fourth pursuit occurred around 6 p.m. on Seco Canyon Road in Saugus, reportedly due to the suspect’s vehicle driving recklessly and potentially driving under the influence.

A future open space trailhead in the Tesoro area will be named after a founding Santa Clarita city councilman, and a portion of land in Newhall after a family who has donated several acres of land to the city for open-space preservation.
The move comes after City Council members unanimously approved the naming of both properties Tuesday during their regular meeting.
Named for Koontz
In the Tesoro area, the city has been working to have annexed more than 1,700 acres from Los Angeles County, located north of Copper Hill Drive and west of San Francisquito Canyon Road. Within 800 acres of open space in that area are several miles of existing native soil multi-use trails and a trailhead, located at Copper Hill Drive and Avenida Rancho Tesoro will be named after former Councilman Dennis Koontz.
