Claire said she tried to run after the van to see if it would stop. It did not. 

Police investigators traced the van to a certain Jose Lester Villanueva Penaranda who had been sent subpoenas but had yet to appear before the authorities.

The suspect has been since charged with homicide, physical injuries, damage to property, and abandonment of one's own victims. — Mel Matthew Doctor/NB, GMA News
