On the morning of September 28, 2016, Ryan Scott Trent, 29, was found inside his white Chevrolet Silverado after the truck left Ellington Parkway in Nashville and stopped in a tree line near the Briley Parkway junction. What first looked like a single-vehicle crash was ruled a homicide when the medical examiner determined Trent died of a gunshot wound to the back of his head. Investigators say the shot caused him to lose control of the vehicle while he was driving home from work.

No motive or suspects have been publicly identified, and the investigation has been referred to the Metro Nashville Police Department’s Cold Case Unit. Trent’s family has repeatedly renewed a substantial cash reward and made public pleas for information that could lead to an arrest and conviction. If anyone knew Ryan, saw his truck that night, or has information about who might have shot him, please come forward.
