Summary
Nashville police arrested Rex Ryan, 63, after he turned himself in Wednesday morning on six misdemeanor warrants tied to a late Tuesday crash on Broadway.
Police said two pedestrians had the walk signal when Ryan, turning from 4th Avenue in a pickup truck, ran over their feet and struck one person's leg, causing minor injuries.
The pedestrians said Ryan did not stop after the collision, then argued with them when they caught up to him at a stoplight before driving away.
The charges include two counts each of leaving the scene, failing to give information or render aid, and disobeying a traffic signal; bond was set at $6,000.
Ryan, a former Jets and Bills coach who has worked for ESPN since 2016, is in contact with the network, which said it is aware of the case.
