Right now authorities allege that the teenage driver of the truck had been drinking, and they recommended charges for intoxication assault. If that’s true, it raises many questions. Where did a 17-year-old get alcohol from? Was it given to them, or did a negligent alcohol provider sell it to them? What was this truck being used for? Was it a rental? Privately owned? Used for a local business? And if this was a work truck, how in the world does an allegedly intoxicated teenager end up behind the wheel? Ultimately, there are a lot of unanswered questions right now, and the answers could show that this is an incredibly complex legal situation a police investigation alone isn’t likely to address.
