Former NFL head coach Rex Ryan turned himself in to authorities on Wednesday following allegations that he struck pedestrians with a vehicle in Nashville, Tennessee, according to an Associated Press report.

The incident, which occurred earlier this week, prompted Ryan to surrender to Nashville police. Details regarding the number of pedestrians involved, the extent of any injuries, and the specific charges Ryan may face were not immediately released by law enforcement.

Ryan, 63, served as head coach of the New York Jets from 2009 to 2014 and the Buffalo Bills from 2015 to 2016, compiling a 61-66 regular-season record. He most recently worked as an analyst for ESPN.

Nashville police have not issued a detailed statement on the circumstances of the collision. Ryan's legal representation has not commented publicly on the matter.
