“The first officer arrived seconds after the crash and he did a very great job of extracting these kiddos from underneath the vehicle,” said Officer Cory Schuler, a public information officer for SAPD.

At last check, both teens were in critical but stable condition at an area hospital.

Castillo remained at the scene and spoke with officers before she was booked on suspicion of driving while intoxicated.

According to Bexar County court records, Castillo was released from jail on a $250,000 bond.

She is scheduled to appear in court Oct. 26.
