Bay Area woman arrested after 2023 crash that left a young girl dead in a school crosswalk

More than a year after an 11-year-old girl was struck and killed while using a school crosswalk in Fairfield, the Solano County District Attorney’s Office is now filing charges against the woman who is believed to have hit her while driving under the influence.

Fairfield police announced Friday that following the department’s investigation, a warrant was issued for the arrest of 32-year-old Fairfield resident Elena Lindsey McGraw-Ogans, who was arrested May 16 on a charge of gross negligence and it no bail was set.

The warrant stemmed from a March 23, 2023 incident in which Fairfield police officers responded to Grange Middle School after multiple reports that a child had been struck by a vehicle while attempting to cross the street, entering the crosswalk to use.
