After leaving the accident scene, Traynere arrived at the Bolingbrook Police Station where according to the police reports, she said she was stopped at a red light while a child was crossing the crosswalk on his way to school. Traynere said she started moving when the left turn arrow turned green and saw a child fall off a bicycle, she said she was unsure if she struck him. She checked on him and left the scene and later arrived at the police department, however, police officers noticed there was a dent and large scratch in the hood of her car that she didn’t explain.
According to the child, he was crossing the crosswalk when the “walk” indicator was illuminated, and Traynere’s blue car struck him in the side. This was restated by another child at the scene.
