A day later the Rydberg family is still sickened by Ronnie's death.

"Today was very hard. It's not everyday you have to go pick out a casket for your older brother," said Josie Rydberg.

Josie Rydberg knows she can't have her brother back, so instead she's placing hope elsewhere.

"We want this to be over with. We want peace."

Peace seemed much closer when, this afternoon, Omaha police announced an arrest.
Flor Campos
"In the course of the investigation, officers were able to make an arrest of Flor Campos as an accessory to a felony for her involvement in this case," said Michael Pecha with the Omaha Police Department.

That was great news, just a day after the crash that killed their loved one. Police had been looking for two men who fled from a red truck after they allegedly ran a red light and caused the crash near 42nd and Q.

"We are angry. We want justice," said Ryberg.

That's part of the reason the family didn't understand Flor Campos' arrest. What did this 24-year-old woman allegedly do to be an accessory if she was not one of the two men in truck when the accident happened?

The family learned Tuesday night.

Police say after the accident that killed Ronnie Rydberg, Campos drove the two men who fled from the scene down to Kansas City where she put them on a bus to Mexico.

The good news is that police know who they are looking for. It's a 24-hour bus ride from Kansas City to El Paso, Texas. Campos was arrested in Omaha at 5 a.m.

That means unless the men went directly with Campos to Kansas City and boarded a bus to El Paso almost immediately, there's a good chance police either did or could have someone waiting for them when the bus arrives in El Paso.
