Hopefully authorities have continued looking into this rather than just moving on. One would hope to see them release more details to the public. The community is often a vital tool in connecting the dots and identifying someone who flees an accident scene. Action could then be taken both to see them held accountable for the accident and to find out why they fled in the first place. Even though some time has passed, there can still be progress toward a resolution if efforts continue.
