Earlier this week Meghan Markel's half sister Samatha claimed ruthless paparazzi ran her off the road in an incident eerily similar to what happened to Prince Harry's mother Princess Diana [click here if you missed that].
Authorities are beginning to doubt Samantha's tale...
From The Daily Mail
Cops are baffled by explosive claims that Meghan Markle's half sister was run off the road and hospitalized by a paparazzo because they can't find any evidence the crash happened, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Officers from the Florida Highway Patrol spent three hours trawling their database for details after TMZ reported that the car Samantha Markle, 53, was travelling in struck a concrete barrier on Wednesday afternoon.
And after their search turned up empty they even warned the driver, her 60-year-old boyfriend Mark Phillips, could be guilty of a hit and run misdemeanor - punishable by two months in jail - for failing to report an accident.
'Even if they hit a stationary property such as a wall under Florida law you are required to report that to law enforcement,' Lt. Kim Montes told DailyMail.com.
'If you didn't that's considered to be a hit and run.' Lt. Montes said she reached out to TMZ after they splashed the story online along with a photo of Markle, who has MS and is confined to a wheelchair, receiving treatment in an unidentified hospital.
