Spikes pleads guilty in hit-and-run, gets probation

WRENTHAM, Mass. — Former Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots linebacker Brandon Spikes has pleaded guilty in a hit-and-run crash that injured three people and will serve a year of probation.

Spikes, a former University of Florida standout, appeared Wednesday in Wrentham District Court, where he admitted negligent operation of a motor vehicle, leaving the scene of personal injury, operating an uninsured vehicle, speeding and a marked-lanes violation.

State police found a damaged Mercedes-Benz Maybach luxury car belonging to Spikes abandoned in the median of Interstate 495 in Foxborough on June 7. At about the same time, police responded to a report a Nissan Murano SUV had been struck from behind by a vehicle that left the scene.
