Police have finished their investigation into a crash near Arrowtown last year which killed 17-year-old Allanah Walker and intend to charge a woman over the teen's death.
Miss Walker (17) died, and two others were injured, in the two-car crash in Malaghans Rd shortly before 9.20pm on August 22 last year.

The crash occurred near Millbrook Resort, between The Avenue and Middlerigg Rd.

Police said today they intend to charge a female driver, who is currently overseas, with dangerous driving causing death.
