Nashville police on Monday released bodycam footage showing an officer greeting missing college student Riley Strain, who disappeared on the evening of March 8.
New police body camera footage released by the Metro Nashville Police Department on Monday shows an officer greeting Riley Strain on the evening of March 8 just before he disappeared.
Strain, a 22-year-old senior at the University of Missouri, vanished that Friday evening after a night out drinking with friends during his fraternity’s spring formal trip to Nashville.
«No evidence of foul play has surfaced as work continues to locate Riley Strain,» MNPD said in a Monday tweet. «On Sunday evening, Riley’s parents met with some of the detective team and received a full briefing on the work being done. They were also shown available video.»
MNPD posted the video to X. In it, an MNPD officer appears to be looking at parked vehicles following reports of a vehicle burglary when Strain walks by. The pair exchange a friendly greeting, and Strain keeps walking in the opposite direction of the officer.
«Shown was Riley’s brief exchange of greetings [with] Officer Reginald Young on Gay St., south of the Woodland St. Bridge, on the night of 3/8,» police said on X. «Riley did not appear distressed. Officer Young was there on a vehicle burglary call [and] remained on that portion of Gay St.
