A criminal complaint details criminal vehicular homicide and reckless driving charges against the 16-year-old girl, who CNN is not naming because she is a juvenile. It describes how a state trooper was dispatched on December 17 to a crash that occurred on Highway I-494 W. That trooper arrived to find a 17 year old, and learned the 16-year-old was the driver that cause the car to careen into a ditch. Upon forceful impact, the car was sliced in half. She told the trooper that she glanced down for a second and the accident “just happened.”
