In the following days, the officers intensified their searches on the owner of the vehicle and collected all the useful information for the tracing and, following an inspection, the presence of the wanted motorcycle where the man works was confirmed and some places were organized of control over the various possible routes for returning home.
At 4.30pm on 15 May, local police personnel managed to stop the vehicle on the street of Rijeka, ascertaining that the owner of the vehicle was driving and that he actually did not have a driving licence.
Given the man’s need to reach the residence by 5pm (he was wearing the electronic bracelet which would have rang if he did not return), the operators accompanied the driver to his home to challenge him for driving without a license and, since he confirmed that he was had been driving the vehicle at the time of the accident a few days earlier, he was charged with a further violation for driving without a license at the time of the accident, in addition to fleeing from the scene of the accident and failing to inform the other party.
