UK Prosecutors to Charge US Diplomat's Wife Over Fatal Car Crash

Reuters

   LONDON - British prosecutors said on Friday they had decided to charge
   the wife of a U.S. diplomat over a fatal car crash in England and to
   seek her extradition, a decision that "disappointed" Washington.

   Harry Dunn, 19, died after his motorcycle was in a collision with a car
   driven by Sacoolas near RAF Croughton, an air force base in the English
   county of Northamptonshire that is used by the U.S. military.

   Anne Sacoolas, 42, was given diplomatic immunity and left Britain
   shortly after the accident, setting off a dispute between London and
   Washington over whether she should return to face investigation.
