Anne Sacoolas, 42, is accused in the United Kingdom of causing the death of 19-year-old Harry Dunn, for driving dangerously after an accident in Northamptonshire in August last year.
Ms. Sacoolas, wife of a United States intelligence official, claimed diplomatic immunity after the accident and was able to return to her home country, sparking international controversy.
She was accused of causing death from dangerous driving in December.
But an extradition request submitted by the Home Office for Ms. Sacoolas was rejected by the United States Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, in January.
Now Interpol, an international organization that facilitates global police cooperation, has issued a Red Notice to Ms. Sacoolas.
In an email sent by Northamptonshire police, the 19-year-old’s parents were told that the suspect was “internationally wanted” and that “if she left the US, the wanted circulations should be enacted” .
Dunn, 19, died in hospital when his motorcycle crashed into a car outside the RAF Croughton US military base in Northamptonshire on August 27 last year.
The accident took place on the B4031, about 400 meters from the exit.
The car was said to have been driven by Ms. Sacoolas, a United States government employee who worked at the United States Air Force listening station at RAF Croughton.
Ms. Sacoolas cooperated with the police at the scene of the accident and was subjected to a breathalyser.
Police interviewed her the next day at her home, who launched an investigation into the accident after reports that the car was on the wrong side of the road at the time of the accident.
Diplomatic immunity was mentioned during the interview, prompting Northamptonshire police to trigger an immunity waiver that same day.
But on September 16, two weeks after the accident, the Commonwealth and Foreign Affairs Office (FCO) informed police that the exemption had been rejected.
It was also revealed that Ms. Sacoolas had left the United Kingdom on a US Air Force plane. USA
