VINEYARD — Francis Bernard, a BYU linebacker who is redshirting this season for personal reasons, was arrested early Saturday morning on suspicion of driving under the influence and driving without a valid license, according to the Utah County Sheriff's Office.
According to Sgt. Spencer Cannon, a deputy stopped Bernard around 1:10 a.m. near an apartment complex in Vineyard for having an expired registration.
Cannon confirmed the DUI booking was based on the use of alcohol.
