Student hit by car during sorority rush

September 9, 2014

On Sept. 6 at about 10:55 a.m. in front of the Pi Beta Phi sorority house on the 300 block of N. Harrison , “A 17-year-old female, from Lake Orion, Mich. was hit by a gray Buick LeSabre,” East Lansing police Capt. Jeff Murphy  said.

This incident happened during the rush for the Gamma chapter of the Pi Beta Phi sorority.

“The young woman was getting off of the bus in front of the house and stepped into the left lane on North Harrison where she was struck,” Murphy said.

"It was totally an accident, there was nothing the woman could have done about it," said special education freshman Julia Lederer.  “Everything stopped, and I was in shock, everyone was in shock. The woman got out of the car and was arrested once the police arrived.”

“There were no life-threatening injuries, she will be fine,” Murphy said.
