FBI aids probe after car plows into 8 California pedestrians
Sunnyvale Police Department said in a tweet that the suspect is Isaiah Joel Peoples, a 34-year-old resident of Sunnyvale. He was arrested Tuesday night after speeding through an intersection and crashing his Toyota Corolla into a tree. The conditions of the injured, which included a 13-year-old girl, were not immediately disclosed.He is an auditor for the Department of Defense in Mountain View, said his mother, Leevell Peoples of Sacramento, California, on Wednesday.
The only sign of the crash was skid marks on the sidewalk where the car had swerved up, and a dented tree that Peoples crashed into, muttering thanks to Jesus as he slumped over the steering wheel of a hissing car. Witness statements matched Draper's recollection that the driver was speeding and drove directly toward the pedestrians without trying to veer away or stop before striking them in the city located about 50 miles south of San Francisco.
"He basically probably has no friends but the people he works with," she said."I'm just hoping the Army stuff wouldn't have caused this to happen. He doesn't have any seizures or anything." Former housemate Chuck Herrera described Peoples as very quiet, someone who had to be coaxed into going out for drinks or dinner. But he said Peoples was polite and kind and sweet to Herrera's toddler son."The guy I met was not someone who you think will hurt someone," he said."My guess is something happened."
