On the morning of September 28, 2016, 29-year-old Ryan Scott Trent was driving his white Chevrolet Silverado home from work as a night manager at Premier Parking in Nashville, Tennessee. Just before 3:00 a.m., a 911 call reported a pickup truck had veered off Ellington Parkway and into the trees near the Briley Parkway West overpass. First responders found Trent dead at the crash scene.

What first looked like a traffic wreck was later ruled a homicide after the Medical Examiner determined Trent had sustained a fatal gunshot wound. Investigators concluded he was shot while driving, which caused him to lose control of the truck. No arrests have been announced and the murder remains unsolved; the family has repeatedly renewed a substantial reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction and continues to ask the public for tips.

Anyone with information about Ryan Trent’s movements that night or who may have seen the truck near Ellington Parkway is asked to contact the Nashville Police Department’s Cold Case Homicide Unit.
