Four people have been arrested in connection with the rape and death of a Louisiana State University student - who was struck and killed by a ride-share car.

Madison 'Madi' Brooks, 19, died in hospital in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on January 15.

On Monday night, East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office announced that Kaivon Washington, 18, has been charged with third-degree rape - alongside a 17-year-old.

Casen Carver, 18, and Everett Lee, 28, were also arrested and charged as accomplices to third-degree rape following Brooks' death.

Arrest documents also indicate that Brooks had a blood alcohol level of.319 percent at the time of her death - meaning she was highly intoxicated at nearly four times the legal limit.

Washington, one of those charged with Brooks' alleged rape, stated he had a consensual sexual encounter with her after the group left Reggie's Bar in Tigerland in Baton Rouge following a night of drinking.

Washington said that he and another teen had intercourse with Brooks in the back seat of a car while Carver and Lee were in the front seats.

Carver has admitted that he and his three friends drank at the bar before leaving with Brooks, who was 'very unstable on her feet, was not able to keep her balance, and was unable to speak clearly without slurring her words.

Carver allegedly told investigators his 17-year-old friend and Brooks were 'hugging and walking together.'

Investigators say Carver told them Brooks asked for a ride home with them.

The men claim Brooks then asked to be taken home but say she gave them a number of different addresses before she got out of the car.

Carver says they later dropped off Brooks in a neighborhood near Burbank Drive.

She was killed shortly afterward, when she walked into the middle of the road and was hit by a ride-share vehicle at around 3am.
