It's very encouraging authorities thought to look for a nearby camera, something I too often see go overlooked. With these new details in the public eye, hopefully someone can connect the dots and come forward with information that leads to an arrest. Not only should there be consequences for the driver leaving the scene, but it's possible there will need to be other consequences for whatever led the driver to flee in the first place.
