ANAHEIM, Calif. (KABC) -- Eight students on the Anaheim High School 
running team were injured after a suspected DUI driver plowed into them 
during a training run Wednesday afternoon, police said.

The high school students were waiting at the intersection of Harbor 
Boulevard and W. North Street when they were hit by a car that went off 
the road just before 3 p.m., according to the Anaheim Police Department.

Police said eight students, between 16 and 17 years old, were struck. 
Three were immediately taken to a hospital with serious injuries.

Eyewitness News obtained surveillance video from a nearby business that 
shows a red Toyota veer right and head toward the corner where the 
students were standing.

"All I could see was people running around hysterically trying to save 
somebody right in front of that car," witness Eddie Martinez recalled.

The driver, only identified as a 27-year-old Anaheim man, was also taken 
to a hospital in unknown condition. He was later arrested on suspicion of 
DUI and will be booked once he's released from the hospital.

Police said a coach was running with the students and was coming up to the 
intersection when he witnessed the crash.

forward to America being great again.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that 
stupid people won't be offended.

Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama 
/ Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood 
queer liberal democrat donors.
