A University of North Texas student accused one of her sorority sisters of threatening her life and attempting to hit her with a car, a Denton police report said.

The 20-year-old student said the threats have been going on since February, and they culminated this week when her sorority sister tried to hit her with her car, the report said.

Her sorority sister swerved out of her lane and attempted to hit the student as she walked down the street, the report said. The woman was not injured in the incident.

The sorority sister has a history of drinking and violent behavior, the report said.
