An 18-year-old University student was arrested early Saturday morning on the 1600 block of Crescent Road on charges of operating under the influence after he crashed his vehicle, police said.

Lawrence Police Sgt. Kirk Fultz and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office booking recap said Samuel Schlotterback hit a retaining wall and a fire hydrant, flipping his Subaru over.

Fultz said a witness saw people from another car help Schlotterback flip his Subaru upright before trying to drive away when police arrested him.

According to the booking recap, Schlotterback was also charged with failure to report an accident, having no insurance, and leaving the scene of an accident. He was booked after 2:30 a.m. and posted bond the same day.
