Nashville, TN – A 21-year-old man was seriously injured in a hit-and-run crash while crossing Church Street, and authorities are searching for the suspect allegedly responsible.

According to the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, arrest warrants have been issued for Tony Gebian Lopez-Infante, 32, in connection with the May 18 crash that injured Zachary Carach. Investigators allege Lopez-Infante was driving a Mitsubishi Mirage, which was later returned with front-end damage to a rental agency in Mt. Juliet on May 19. Officers located the vehicle on May 20.

Lopez-Infante, a Venezuelan national, was allegedly identified as the driver who fled the scene. Despite ongoing efforts, authorities have not located him. Homeland Security Investigations and other federal agencies are assisting in the search.

Police stated Lopez-Infante will face multiple charges upon arrest, including leaving the scene of a personal injury crash, failure to render aid or file a report, attempted evidence tampering, and driving without a license or insurance. He also reportedly has an outstanding probation violation warrant in Williamson County related to a prior theft case.
