It’s good to see authorities identified a suspect here, but did they ever consider why the driver ran? It’s rarely just panic about the accident itself. More often, there’s something specific they didn’t want authorities to know about, like warrants or drunk driving. If there’s accountability, it should be for all of the mistakes surrounding the accident.
