The McHenry County Sheriff's Office provided an update on a hit-and-run crash that killed a 15-year-old boy in Crystal Lake, Illinois.

The McHenry County Sheriff's Office said Saturday morning that the suspected vehicle believed to be involved in the crash on Wednesday had been found.

Around 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, two 15-year-old boys were walking their bikes back from a fishing trip when a car going 40 mph slammed into one of them from behind at Terra Cotta Road and Deering Oaks Lane. Police said the driver fled the scene.

The McHenry County Coroner's office identified the victim as 15-year-old Nick Laureys. An autopsy determined Nick died from blunt force injuries.

The office said there are no additional suspects, and no charges have been filed. They plan to release more information as it becomes available.
