KU basketball star Josh Jackson charged with misdemeanor property damage of car outside Lawrence bar

A KU men’s basketball star has been charged after prosecutors say he damaged the car of a female student in early December.

Josh Jackson, 20, was charged Friday in Douglas County District Court with one count of criminal damage to property, less than $1,000, which is a Class A misdemeanor.

The Star reported earlier this month that Jackson and teammate Lagerald Vick were of interest in the case. Police submitted its case to the prosecutor’s office on Feb. 9. Vick, who was with Jackson that night, was listed as a witness on an information page about the charge filed with the court.
