October 7, 2024 – The driver of the stolen Audi Q5 who was critically injured in Friday morning’s single vehicle crash on Murfreesboro Pike near Morris Gentry Boulevard has been identified as 17-year-old Corey Carpenter. The preliminary investigation indicates the Audi was traveling south at a high rate of speed passing vehicles in the right turn lane when it hit a curb causing it to go airborne before striking a utility pole and then a culvert.
Carpenter was not wearing his seatbelt. He was found 115 feet away from the Audi.
He was transported to Vanderbilt University Medical Center where he remains with life-threatening injuries.
The Audi was reported stolen on Thursday from a home’s garage on Criddle Street. The keys were left inside the vehicle.
Two handguns, a 9-millimeter magazine, and two laptops were recovered from inside the Audi after the crash.
