Man Runs Over 3 Children in SW Atlanta Car Wash

Atlanta police say Jose Mena ran over 3 children with his car as he pulled into at Metropolitan Parkway car wash in Southwest Atlanta.

The car wash is located at 1932 Metropolitan Parkway, and according to WSB-TV, Jose Mena is in custody.

The three kids, ages 3, 9, and 13, were waiting on their father to wash their car when Mena arrived.

“He’s got the kids pinned to the wall with the car,” witness Curtis Smith told Channel  2 Action News. “People started pounding on the window.”

Smith thinks Mena either fell asleep or looked down.

The 34 year-old man was driving without a license.
