Rex Ryan arrest details
Late on Wednesday, Nov. 4, police said Ryan was driving his pickup truck in downtown Nashville when he made a right turn from Fourth Avenue onto Broadway, per WSMV. With pedestrians crossing Fourth Avenue during a walk signal, Ryan allegedly "ran over both people’s feet and struck one person’s leg" while turning, leading to "minor injuries" for the pedestrians.
The pedestrians allegedly struck by Ryan's vehicle told police that he then continued driving to Broadway and Rep. John Lewis Way, where he then stopped his truck at a red light. While at that light, the pedestrians waved down Ryan, who "got out and argued with them before returning to the truck and driving away," police said, per WSMV.
Police added that the pedestrians did photograph the driver and the truck’s license plate, which was registered to Ryan; a warrant was then issued for his arrest, and he turned himself in to police on Wednesday morning.
The former Jets and Bills head coach, who has appeared on ESPN as an NFL analyst since 2016, is being charged with two counts of leaving the scene of an accident, two counts of failure to give information or render aid, and two counts of failure to obey a traffic control signal, according to WSMV. A judicial commissioner reportedly set his bond at $6,000.
TMZ also released a photo of Ryan's mugshot from his arrest on Wednesday.
