Apple employee Eric Chen Su was arrested and charged with suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter last week following a fatal collision near the intersection of North Tantau Avenue and Pruneridge Avenue, right next to the Apple Park Visitor Center, according to the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office and the San Francisco Chronicle.
Shortly after noon on Friday, Su was reportedly traveling between 90 and 100 miles per hour when he struck the back of a stopped vehicle occupied by a two-year-old girl and her babysitter, an adult woman. Both were seriously injured and transported to a nearby hospital, where tragically the child later died despite lifesaving efforts.
Su suffered minor injuries, according to authorities. His charges have since been upgraded to murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
Apple responded to the incident in a statement shared with MacRumors today.
“Our hearts are broken by the tragic accident that happened outside of Apple Park Visitor Center,” an Apple spokesperson said. “Our thoughts are with all of those grieving, and we are grateful for the care and support of the first responders.”
Apple did not immediately respond when asked if the employee has been terminated or placed on leave. The case is now before the court.
