The Lake County Prosecutor's Office has declined to comment on charges for the juvenile driver in a Lake Station river death, stating that due to the minor involvement in the case, Indiana law restricts the release of information to protect the privacy and rights of the juvenile involved.

An autopsy is scheduled for Friday and toxicology results are expected in two to four weeks.
