A child sustained minor injuries after a car crashed into a home Sunday morning in Oxnard.
The wreck occurred on the 1200 block of Juneberry Place around 3:07 a.m. when an SUV veered off the road and crashed into a room occupied by three girls, the Oxnard Police Department said.
Officers identified the driver of the gray Mitsubishi SUV as 19-year-old Jake Mejia, said Oxnard Police Sgt. Bakari Myers. He initially fled the scene, but a good Samaritan followed him and alerted police to his location.
Mejia was arrested for driving under the influence of drugs, Myers said. An officer on the scene smelled marijuana on Mejia's person, Myers said.
