State police say a man is in custody for the deadly hit-and-run of a pedestrian in St. Martin Parish.
Troopers say 51-year-old Dorine Johnnie of Lafayette was killed early yesterday morning while walking alone on LA-91-1 near the town of Cade.
The driver of a white Hummer H2, 34-year-old Michael John of Breaux Bridge, called troopers later in the day to admit he was the driver of the vehicle. He was subsequently booked into the parish jail.
