Anne Sacoolas is due to face criminal proceedings in the UK after being charged with causing Harry Dunn’s death by dangerous driving.

The 44-year-old US citizen is accused of killing the teenager in a road crash outside US military base RAF Croughton in Northamptonshire on 27 August 2019.

The case will be heard at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on January 18, the Crown Prosecution Service said.
