An Apple employee, Eric Chen Su, has been charged with murder following a fatal accident near the Apple Park Visitor Center. The incident occurred on Friday when Su's vehicle crashed into a stopped car, resulting in the death of two-year-old Riley Howard and the injury of her babysitter. Apple employee Su was initially charged with suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter, but the charges have since been upgraded to murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Su's actions demonstrated a disregard for the safety of others, particularly during a busier-than-normal time of day. Apple issued a statement expressing their condolences and gratitude for the support of first responders, but it remains unclear whether Su has been placed on leave or fired from the company. The plea hearing for Su is scheduled for November 30 at Palo Alto.
