I wonder if authorities checked the gas station for any potential security footage. As obvious a step as that seems, I had a case not long ago where authorities completely dropped the ball. They said they couldn’t determine what caused a crash, but we were able to find a nearby business that caught the whole thing on camera. Simply put, mistakes happen, but with something as serious as a hit-and-run, steps should be taken to make sure nothing slips through the cracks. That way, there can be appropriate consequences for what happened to the victim.
