Officers are still investigating what caused Walker, of Oakley, to speed through a parking lot, cross a street, strike a curb and then careen into the table. Initial evidence indicates he might have a medical condition that caused the crash, Unified Police Department spokeswoman Melody Gray said.
Police are waiting for the results of his toxicology report before releasing an official cause, Gray said.
Walker, who was conscious when first responders found him at the crash site, was taken to the hospital in critical condition. As of Saturday evening, Gray said he was still in the hospital. Two children who were in the truck during the crash are OK, police have said.
Of the two others who were critically injured, only one remains in the hospital. That person is still considered critical. The other has since been released, Gray said.
