The Douglas County Sheriff's Office (DGSO) in Kansas City, Missouri, has announced that they have located and arrested the suspect involved in a hit-and-run accident that resulted in the tragic death of 20-year-old University of Kansas student, Elsa McGrain. DGSO revealed that they found both the suspect and their vehicle on Sunday evening following an investigation. The suspect's identity will not be disclosed until formal charges are officially filed. Elsa McGrain was fatally struck by a vehicle while jogging on East 1500 Road in Lawrence on Thursday, Nov. 6. The driver fled the scene after hitting McGrain, who was a compassionate pre-med student poised to graduate in 2026. McGrain's great aunt, Nancy Chartrand, described her as a kind-hearted individual who exemplified rare kindness. The swift apprehension of the suspect was credited to an exhaustive investigation by DGSO, which included valuable tips from the public and substantial evidence. This is an evolving situation and FOX4 will promptly share any updates as they become available.
