What crime did the biker that got run over commit?
(Driving a getaway car is a felony by itself, nevermind the precipitate involvement in conspiracy).
If they can find evidence that crushed-femur-dude had been involved in planning this (say, they decided they'd rob some dude by getting in an accident and slashing his tires), then he becomes an accomplice. Otherwise, the connection is tenuous.
