Teen Accused Of Running Over Ex-Boyfriend At Analy High School

SEBASTOPOL, CA — A 17-year-old Sonoma County girl has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder for allegedly hitting her ex-boyfriend with her car in the parking lot of Analy High School, then running over his body, according to a statement Friday from the Sebastopol Police Department.

The incident happened at about 10 a.m. Thursday and was initially reported as a hit-and-run of a pedestrian at the campus, police said. Officers who responded to the scene spoke not only with witnesses but with the teen driver as well as the victim, a 17-year-old boy.

Police said their investigation revealed the driver and the victim were previously in a dating relationship and that the driver "deliberately drove her vehicle at the victim, striking him, and then attempted to leave the scene."

The boy was walking in through the parking lot, the suspect quickly backed her car out of a parking space before allegedly accelerating directly toward him, a review of surveillance footage from the incident allegedly showed.

Police said the footage showed her slowing momentarily before accelerating again while steering toward him and deliberately striking him — knocking him to the ground.

It is alleged that she then drove over the victim's body.

The teen suspect was booked into Sonoma County Juvenile Detention Facility on suspicion of the attempted murder charge as well as domestic battery with injury.

Police said the identities of the involved parties would not be released because of their status as minors.

The injuries suffered by the boy were not life-threatening, police said.
