No charges have been filed against the driver who struck the 15-year-old girl and killed her last night on Route 6 in Rehoboth, and it doesn't appear as if any will be.

"Based on the information currently available to investigators, it does not appear that criminal charges will be forthcoming against the vehicle operator," the Rehoboth Police Department said in a statement issued late this morning.

Sabrina Dawn Coutu was struck around 6:15 p.m. as she tried to cross the busy four-lane highway, according to the police. Late this morning, the police and Sabrina's father, Albert W. Coutu Jr. of Burrillville, confirmed her identity.

Sabrina lived in North Providence and was a sophomore at the William J. Davies Vocational and Technical School in Lincoln. She was also the daughter of Janet Roxanne Koziol of North Providence.

Sabrina was attempting to cross Route 6 with 26-year-old Richard E. Scarano, of Taunton, Mass., according to a news release issued around 11:30 a.m. today by the Rehoboth Police Department.

She was struck in front of Speedway Liquors by a 1995 Mercury Sable driven by Jean E. Ramella, of East Providence, who was traveling east on the road, according to the police statement.

The accident remains under investigation.

Sabrina was taken to Rhode Island Hospital, where she was pronounced dead at 6:47 p.m., according to an earlier statement issued by Rehoboth Police Lt. James Trombetta.

The Massachusetts State Police sent its collision analysis and reconstruction team to the scene, according to state police Lt. Eric Anderson. Results from that investigation will take some time, Anderson said this morning.
