Earlier this month, friends and family of Miami resident Luka Balenovic were shocked to learn he'd died in a car crash on the night of August 6. But they were even more upset to learn that Gerardo Valdivia, the man behind the wheel of the car that hit Balenovic's motorcycle, shouldn't have been on the road in the first place.
Valdivia was driving on a suspended license. He was even charged for that crime in a traffic stop on May 19, along with driving a vehicle in an unsafe condition, driving without insurance, and not wearing a seatbelt. That came just three days after he'd been stopped for driving through a red light. But Valdivia blew off his scheduled court appearance for the suspended license charge. And to top it all off, despite being at fault for the crash that took Balenovic's life, Valdivia hasn't yet been charged with any crime. Police have confirmed that the investigation remains open, however.
