ASU Football Player Arrested On DUI Charges After Fatal Collision

SCOTTSDALE, AZ —An Arizona State football player has been arrested on DUI-related charges in connection with a fatal collision involving a pedestrian early Saturday in Old Town Scottsdale, according to Scottsdale police.

Authorities said Stanley Lambert, 22, was booked for one count each of DUI —impaired to the slightest degree and DUI —blood alcohol content of .08 percent or more, after a collision that resulted in the death of 23-year-old Norah Bruther, whom police said was visiting from New Jersey.

The collision happened at 1:38 a.m. Saturday morning at Camelback Road and Minnezona Avenue, police said.

According to authorities, the pedestrian was attempting to cross Camelback Road when she was struck in the westbound lanes of the roadway by a single passenger vehicle.

Despite life-saving efforts by police and paramedics, the victim was pronounced dead at the scene, according to police.

Scottsdale police said Lambert was investigated at the scene, booked and released. The department said the investigation is ongoing pending lab results for blood alcohol level.

Police said additional charges are possible, and the case will be forwarded to the appropriate court for formal charging by a prosecutor when the investigation is complete.

On ASU's current football roster, Lambert is listed as a redshirt senior defensive lineman from San Antonio, Texas.

"We are aware of the tragic situation over the weekend involving one of our student-athletes," Sun Devil Athletics said in a statement. "Our thoughts are with the family and friends of all involved. We are still gathering information and we do not have any other statement at this time."
