Rex Ryan Charged Over Alleged Nashville Hit-and-Run

Former New York Jets coach and ESPN analyst Rex Ryan turned himself in to Nashville police Wednesday after authorities accused him of hitting two pedestrians with his pickup truck downtown and leaving the scene. Police say the pedestrians had a walk signal when Ryan turned right, running over their feet and making contact with one person’s leg; their injuries were described as minor. The pedestrians reportedly confronted Ryan at a red light, where he got out to argue before driving away without exchanging information; they photographed his vehicle and license plate. Ryan faces six misdemeanor charges: two counts each of leaving the scene of an accident, failing to provide information or render aid, and failing to obey a traffic signal. His bond was set at $6,000, and he is scheduled to appear in court next month.
