According to Oakland police, two brothers, a 7-year-old and 4-year-old were driving a white Toyota sedan when they sideswiped an oncoming vehicle. The car then struck a woman who was walking her dog before crashing into a retaining wall. Authorities say the crash happened around 9:35a.m. on Thursday, August 6, near the intersection of 35th Avenue and Mangels Avenue, just off Interstate 580.

The woman’s dog was also found unharmed in the area. Police say they still don’t know why the children took their parents’ car.
