Vinnie Sterio, 18, was arrested Monday night after police say he lost control of his vehicle and ran over two pedestrians, including a driver who was rear-ended during a suspected street race.
The incident began just after 10 p.m., when the driver of a Nissan Sentra got out her car to assist the driver she rear-ended.

Vinnie was arrested and then booked at Sacramento County Jail. He has since posted bail.
