It’s unclear right now if authorities located the suspect runaway driver, but details suggest they have that person’s identity. Even when they do hold that person accountable for leaving the scene, though, they’d also need to find out why the driver fled. It’s rarely due to panic alone. They may have been under the influence, they may have had warrants, or they may have been in possession of a stolen vehicle. At the end of the day, people deserve to see those who wronged them held accountable for their actions.
