Son of Ex-NFL QB Bubby Brister Arrested After Fatal Hit-and-Run

Walter Andrew Brister IV, the son of two-time Super Bowl champion Bubby Brister, turned himself into police on Wednesday, days after a hit-and-run that killed a 44-year-old man near LSU’s campus in Baton Rouge.

Brister has been charged with hit-and-run, according to the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office.

The Baton Rouge Advocate reported that police believe the 21-year-old Brister was driving a black Range Rover SUV that struck pedestrian Jude Jarreau, who was attempting to cross a street late Saturday. Jarreau died at the scene. Per the Advocate, the driver fled the scene of the accident before police arrived.
