The girl, who was traveling in the passenger seat , has collaborated with the authorities to try to identify and locate the driver; But that has not prevented her from being investigated for four crimes : reckless manslaughter, a crime against road safety, abandonment of the accident site and cover-up.

The Armed Institute took over an investigation that, hours after the accident, bore fruit with the identification and location of the car involved in the accident, a Mercedes GLA that showed evident damage to its front.

Agents first reached the person in whose name the vehicle was , who explained that he had recently sold it to a girl, as he was able to prove. Subsequent investigations revealed the location of this person and questioned him about what happened. After carrying out a series of proceedings, early Tuesday morning, charges were filed against her. Three days later, the Traffic Group Information Group (GIAT) closed the case with the arrest of the alleged perpetrator of the attack.

The Civil Guard accused the driver of the crimes of reckless driving, abandonment of the accident site and reckless homicide , although the TSJA has indicated that he is being investigated for these last two charges.
