A young Brisbane property mogul has faced court accused of dangerously drink-driving and fleeing the scene of a four-car pile up that destroyed his Lamborghini and left several people, including a pregnant woman, injured.

Jonathan Fraser Bell, 28, managing director of property management company Housemark and founder of Wingman Group, faced court on Monday over the June, 2024, crash.

It’s alleged Bell was driving his Lamborghini Urus along Kent St in New Farm when it crossed on to the opposite side of the road and collided with a Toyota Corolla.

Two other cars were hit from the impact of the collision.

A Lamborghini crashed on the corner of Brunswick St and Kent St in New Farm.

Multiple ambulances attended the scene and treated various individuals, believed to include a pregnant woman, for a range of injuries including head lacerations, a broken arm and chest and abdominal pain.

Passengers from multiple vehicles, including the Lamborghini, sustained non-life threatening injuries and were taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.

Police later located Mr Bell at his Clayfield address, after he allegedly fled the scene on foot.

Mr Bell faced Brisbane Arrest Court on Monday for the matter’s first mention.

He is charged with one count each of dangerous operation of a vehicle, driving over the general alcohol limit but not over the middle alcohol limit, and failing to comply with the duties of a driver involved in a crash.

Defence lawyer Jaimee-Lee Jessop requested a four week adjournment to take instructions from her client.

The matter was adjourned for mention at Brisbane Magistrates Court on September 4.

Mr Bell was granted bail on his own undertaking.
