The driver who fatally injured a 14-year-old teenager in Nisporeni district on Monday evening was detained. According to the police, this is the mayor of Bolduresti, while the car involved in the accident is a company car, IPN reports.

The General Police Inspectorate said the driver fled the scene, trying to mislead the police.
