The 23-year-old who was driving the BMW that hit a scooter rider on Thursday night was arrested for failure to provide assistance and serious and very serious road injuries.
The Carabinieri of the local Company, in close collaboration with personnel from the Guardia di Finanza Company, arrested the young man in flagrante delicto. The rapid searches allowed in a short time to track down and identify all the people who were traveling on board the car involved in the serious road accident and among the four boys on the run also the driver who confirmed his responsibilities.
It was found that the boy who was driving the car had never obtained a driving license and had also tested positive for drug use. Furthermore, the vehicle did not have the required insurance coverage.
By order of the Sassari Public Prosecutor's Office, which coordinates and directs the investigation, the boy was placed under house arrest pending the holding of the summary trial.
