When detectives tracked down the owner of the vehicle, the owner told them that her friend, Lashana Quinn, was driving her car at the time, according to an arrest affidavit. The owner also told them that Quinn didn't stop because her driver's license was suspended, the report said.

Quinn, of Orlando, has been charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and leaving the scene of a crash with injuries.
