Police said the car in custody is a 2014 Audi Q5 that was located an auto body shop in Wheeling. According to a release, staff at the body shop saw news reports on the type of vehicle officials were looking for, specifically one that had damage to the front area and was missing a passenger side mirror.

"After seeing the damage on the Audi Q5, the employees believed it was likely the vehicle involved in the fatal hit-and-run crash," the sheriff's office said in a statement. "They then contacted the Lake County Sheriff’s Office."

According to officials, pieces of the vehicle left at the scene matched the pieces missing from the vehicle in the body shop. Investigators are processing the car for additional evidence.

Police did not say if they have the driver of the vehicle in custody as of Friday afternoon.

Sheriff John. D. Idleburg did commend the auto body shop workers for playing an "integral role" in allowing deputies to process the vehicle and "advance our investigation."
