It’s unclear if authorities ever located the runaway driver involved here. If they haven’t, it’s not too late to keep putting information out to the public in hopes someone comes forward. The community is one of the best tools for resolving hit-and-runs, as someone is bound to connect the dots eventually. Once that happens, steps can be taken to see there are consequences both for a driver leaving the scene and for what actions occurred leading up to the crash itself. Hopefully there are still efforts being made here to seek closure for those involved.
