The ESPN analyst and former Jets coach turned himself in on misdemeanor warrants after allegedly striking two pedestrians with his truck and driving off.
Rex Ryan is in trouble again, and once more it involves feet. The ESPN NFL analyst and former New York Jets head coach was arrested in Nashville after allegedly hitting two pedestrians with his pickup truck late last week.
According to the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, Ryan was making a turn at an intersection where two pedestrians had a walk signal. His truck allegedly ran over both of their feet, with contact also reportedly made with one victim's leg. Ryan kept driving, though he later stopped at a red light, where the pedestrians caught up with him and argued with him before he drove off again.
The victims photographed Ryan's license plate and called police, which led investigators to trace the truck back to him. Ryan ultimately turned himself in for booking, surrendering on six outstanding misdemeanor warrants connected to the incident.
Ryan, known for his colorful personality during his coaching days with the Jets and later as a television analyst, now faces the fallout from the arrest as the case moves through the legal process.
