A Thousand Oaks High School staff member hurt in a crash involving a teenager over the weekend has drawn a lot of community support, with a fundraiser in her name collecting more than $30,000 by Monday.

Investigators said Lisa Solis, a 50-year-old activities assistant for the school, sustained life-threatening injuries around 8 p.m. Friday during a dispute with a 16-year-old boy who was accused of stealing.

According to a GoFundMe page set up by her sister on Saturday, the victim punctured her lungs and suffered a brain bleed and a broken jaw, ribs and collar bone after the teen ran her over with his car. Solis has been working for the School District for more than a decade, the GoFundMe page said.


The Ventura County Sheriff's Office said Solis had confronted the teen after he allegedly stole from a concession stand during a game. The agency said when the boy entered his vehicle, Solis stood in front of it and told him to not drive away.

That's when the 16-year-old deliberately hit the woman before fleeing the scene, Sgt. Eric Buschow said. He had four passengers in the vehicle, the officer added.

Authorities later detained the boy near his home. He was booked at the Juvenile Justice Center on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon, the Sheriff's Office said.

Officials said the teenager, whose identity was not released, did not attend Thousand Oaks High School but is a student at different school in the Conejo Valley Unified School District, the Ventura County Star reported.
 
Authoritarian types are attracted to such positions, and it's hard for them to let go when they want so badly to control the situation to make sure the rule breakers are punished.

A Newbury Park teen who ran over a school employee while leaving his high school must spend as much as a year behind bars, a Ventura County Superior Court judge has ruled.

The 16-year-old, whom prosecutors declined to name because he is a minor, admitted in May to purposefully running over and causing great bodily injury to Lisa Solis, an employee at Thousand Oaks High School. A judge Friday ordered that he spend 11 months in a juvenile detention facility before his behavior is evaluated, said Maureen Byrne, a Ventura County prosecutor.

If the teen behaves well, he may be eligible to spend the remaining month of his sentence under house arrest with an electronic monitoring bracelet. He then would be evaluated again, Byrne said.
