Former NFL coach Rex Ryan surrenders on hit-and-run charges involving 2 pedestrians

Both pedestrians suffered minor injuries, police said.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Former New York Jets head coach and current NFL analyst Rex Ryan surrendered to authorities Wednesday on six misdemeanor warrants stemming from a downtown Nashville crash that police say injured two pedestrians before the driver left the scene.

Ryan, 63, is charged with two counts of leaving the scene of an accident, two counts of failure to give information or render aid, and two counts of failure to obey a traffic control signal. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $6,000.

According to investigators, the crash happened shortly before midnight Thursday at the intersection of 4th Avenue and Broadway. Police allege two pedestrians were crossing Broadway with a walk signal when Ryan's pickup truck turned right from 4th Avenue, running over both victims' feet and striking one person's leg.

Both pedestrians suffered minor injuries, police said.

Authorities say the truck continued through the intersection before stopping at a red light at Broadway and Representative John Lewis Way. Investigators said the pedestrians approached the driver, whom they identified as Ryan, and confronted him about the crash.

According to police, Ryan got out of the vehicle and argued with the pedestrians before returning to the truck and driving away.

The victims later photographed the truck's license plate, which police said is registered to Ryan, and also took pictures of the driver.

Ryan, who previously served as head coach of the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills, surrendered Wednesday morning for booking. ESPN, where Rex Ryan works as an NFL analyst, issued a brief statement Wednesday: "We are aware and are in touch with Rex."
