Harry Dunn death: Wife of diplomat 'could face arrest if she tries to leave US'

The wife of a diplomat involved in a fatal collision that killed British teenager Harry Dunn could be handed an Interpol red notice, meaning she would risk arrest if she ever leaves the US.

Anne Sacoolas, 42, was granted diplomatic immunity after the crash in Northamptonshire on August 27 when she hit 19-year-old Mr Dunn's motorcycle. It is understood Mrs Sacoolas was driving on the wrong side of the road.

She was "spirited out" of the UK on a military aircraft three weeks after the incident and Mr Dunn's family have been told by the US security adviser that she will not be returning to face justice.

Northamptonshire Police has said it will soon submit a case file on the crash to the Crown Prosecution Service for a charging decision.

If Mrs Sacoolas is charged with causing death by careless driving, or a more serious charge of causing death by dangerous driving, the force can issue an extradition request or a red notice by Interpol.

Speaking about the potential move by Northamptonshire Police, the family's lawyer Mark Stephens said: "If she goes to Canada or Mexico or some other jurisdiction she'd be arrested at the border and returned to the UK."
