CHARTER OAK - A brawl between teens broke out at Charter Oak Park September 15.

It is unclear exactly why the teenagers began fighting each other at the park, 20261 E. Covina Blvd., but at one point someone brandished what appeared to be a handgun and pointed it at some of the teens. Some of the incident was caught on cell phone video.

The park is across the street from Charter Oak High School.

“Our students' safety is always paramount, and I want to thank those who contacted the school and the Sheriff’s Department to report the incident,” according to Charter Oak High School Principal Matthew Dultz in a written statement sent to parents the day of the brawl.

The San Dimas Sheriff’s Station said the Sheriff’s Parks Bureau is handling the investigation. Several messages were left seeking information on the investigation, but those messages were not returned.

It is unclear if any arrests were made or if a weapon was seized.

CHARTER OAK – A driver is scheduled to be arraigned on a felony hit and run charge today as the man she allegedly hit continues to fight for his life.

The collision occurred January 27 between 5:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. The injured man was found behind USA Gasoline, 20354 E. Arrow Hwy. in Charter Oak.

Victoria Wright Fisher, a 73-year-old Glendora woman, was identified as a suspect after the investigation was transferred from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department to the California Highway Patrol Baldwin Park Office.

Fisher was found and arrested in Covina February 4 at 10:50 a.m. She drove a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder when the collision occurred, according to Officer Rodrigo Jimenez of the California Highway Patrol Baldwin Park Office.

The circumstances that led to the collision are not immediately known. It is unclear if alcohol led to the crash.

The victim, identified as Oliver, was left with countless injuries: a broken pelvis, 17 broken ribs, a broken ankle, collapsed lungs, a broken leg, a broken clavicle and more. He recently began battling pneumonia, for which he underwent surgery to clear his lungs, according to his sister, Maggie Bunten.

Security footage from USA Gasoline reportedly showed the collision.

The driver entered the gas station lot from Arrow Highway, drove behind the gas station and struck Oliver. The driver exited the vehicle after the crash, reentered the SUV and drove out to Bonnie Cove Avenue, Bunten told SGV CityWatch.

The arrest was made one day after the case files were delivered to the CHP Baldwin Park Office, Jimenez told SGV CityWatch.

Fisher was issued a citation and released the same day of her arrest. She is expected to appear in the West Covina Courthouse, according to Los Angeles County booking records.
