Victim identified in Clarksville hit-and-run fatality

The identity of the man found deceased alongside Providence Boulevard in Clarksville has been released by the Clarksville Police Department.

The victim has been identified as 41-year-old Jason Reddy and investigation into the circumstances around his death continues. As previously reported, officers were patrolling in the area of Providence Boulevard when they were flagged down by a woman at around midnight last Saturday, who told officers she had been walking and discovered a male lying unresponsive in a ditch near Walker Street.

Officers located Reddy and attempted CPR, but he was pronounced deceased at the scene shortly after.

Preliminary investigation leads officials to believe Reddy was struck by a vehicle that left the scene.
