Rex Ryan surrendered to Nashville police after being charged with six misdemeanors stemming from a traffic incident November 5.
The former New York Jets head coach and current ESPN analyst was charged with two counts of leaving the scene of an accident, two counts of failure to give information/render aid, and two counts of failure to obey a traffic control signal. The alleged crimes happened downtown, in the midst of the honky tonk bars vital to Nashville's culture and tourism.
That's where Ryan, per the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department report, turned right through a crosswalk while the pedestrians had a walk signal and the right of way. He struck two people, running over their feet and making contact with one victim's leg in the process.
Ryan did not stop to check on his alleged victims and kept driving to a red light, where the victims' party caught up with him and snapped pictures of his license plate before contacting police. Per the report, he "stepped out of the truck to argue with them, got back in, and drove away."
Ryan's bond was set at $6,000 after turning himself in. He has yet to comment on the charges.
