Authorities say a 16-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of deliberately running over a woman with a car at a Southern California high school.

Sgt. Eric Buschow says the woman stood in front of the boy's car and he accelerated and hit her, knocking her to the ground. Buschow says the suspect then drove over the woman and fled the scene.

The teen was arrested at his home on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. He wasn’t identified because he's a juvenile.
