A driver struck five vehicles early Thursday near the Kansas University campus and nearly hit a sixth before being arrested for DUI and leaving the scene of an accident.

According to a report, witnesses called police about 1:05 a.m. after seeing a Jeep strike five other vehicles in the 1600 block of Edgehill Road and leave the scene.

As officers were trying to find the driver, someone called KU’s Public Safety Office to report that a vehicle nearly hit someone head-on in the 1600 block of West 15th Street.

The person who was nearly hit followed the suspect’s vehicle to the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house, 1602 W. 15th St., where officers found the vehicle and identified its owner as Jared Lee Hodgson, 19, Lawrence, a resident of the fraternity.

He was booked into jail and released on $1,000 bond to appear in court Sept. 20.
