A school in Central El Paso was under lockdown this morning following a crash near the campus.
A driver slammed into an electrical pole this morning at Circle and California, next to Wiggs Middle School. Officials said power was knocked out to the area, including the school.
According to police on the scene, the driver ran off, but came back later, asking to see what had happened. Officers said they knew he was the driver because they had ran his license plate and found he lived across from the school.
Police said he’ll be charged with DWI. His name has not been released.
