Former NFL Coach Rex Ryan Arrested

NASHVILLE, TN—Former New York Jets Head Coach and current ESPN commentator Rex Ryan, 63, was arrested after turning himself in to authorities in Nashville, Tenn., on November 11. According to the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, he allegedly ran over the feet of two pedestrians with his pickup truck just before midnight on November 5. The pedestrians were crossing Broadway from 4th Avenue with a walk sign when the pickup truck turned right from 4th Avenue, running over both victims’ feet and making contact with one of the individuals’ legs. “The pedestrians said the vehicle kept going, but stopped for the red light at Broadway and Representative John Lewis Way, where they waved down the driver. They said he stepped out of the truck to argue with them, got back in, and drove away. They took pictures of the truck’s license plate and the driver.” “We are aware and are in touch with Rex,” ESPN said in a statement.
