Police have processed the truck and served a search warrant on the home of the truck’s registered owner. Now police are awaiting the results of forensic testing which could take several weeks or even months. Until the results of those tests are know the sheriff’s office is stating that they do not have conclusive evidence that the truck they impounded is the truck from the accident.
