A pedestrian is in stable condition after a man accused of drunken driving drove over a man’s leg on the 23000 block of Drayton Street in Santa Clarita on Sunday.
“A male adult was waiting near a parking area, and another individual, who happened to be intoxicated, ran over the victim’s leg,” said Lt.

The victim was waiting to enter Bridge to Home before he was struck, Dahring said. Sheriff’s deputies were initially notified at 3:45 p.m. and arrived within two minutes.
“I was told that he was doing just fine, and is in stable condition,” Dahring said. “The driver was detained.”
