The East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office says a man has been arrested for allegedly running over and killing his brother with his vehicle early in the morning on Tuesday September 26th, 2017. EBRSO spokeswoman Casey Hicks says they were called at about 3:40am.

Hicks says deputies arrived on the scene in a parking lot to find 30-year-old Stephen Hebert half asleep behind the wheel of a truck that was running.

Stephen Hebert is charged with negligent homicide and DWI in the death of the victim, 32-year-old Kirk Hebert, because Hicks says he appeared to be very intoxicated and admitted that he and his brother had been drinking. She says beyond that; the suspect didn’t remember much.
