Country star Luke Bryan speaks out about missing college student

Country music star Luke Bryan shared his reaction on social media after University of Missouri student Riley Strain disappeared after leaving his Nashville bar on Friday night.

“Y’all this is scary,” Bryan posted on his Instagram story. “Praying for his safe return.”

Five days after his disappearance, Strain is still missing. Police said Strain was kicked out of Bryan’s bar on lower Broadway on Friday night and hasn’t been heard from since.

Bryan said TC Restaurant Group, the owner and operator of Luke’s 32 Bridge, is continuing to work closely with the Metro Nashville Police Department to provide security camera footage and any other potentially helpful information to aid in the search for Strain.

When Strain left the bar, however, he appeared to walk in the opposite direction of his hotel. His phone last pinged between 10 and 10:30 p.m. in the area of Public Square Park, located near the sheriff’s office and the Cumberland River, according to FOX 17.

More video footage captured Strain on Church Street. He was seen wearing the same black and brown shirt his friends last saw him wearing. The video also shows Strain seemingly falling down as he runs through downtown Nashville.

Strain had traveled to Nashville with his fraternity brothers for a convention, according to Fox 17. He told his friends he’d walk back to their hotel, the Tempo by Hilton, about five blocks away. The bar staff felt he had too much to drink, according to his family. 

His phone has not been active since, Fox 17 reported.
