Background: Haley Layman being arrested Tuesday, April 1, 2025 (Grundy County Sheriff’s Office). Inset: Victim Bobby Green with his daughter Clara Green (GoFundMe).
A father in Tennessee was run down by a 25-year-old woman while riding his bicycle on Monday night, according to cops and family members who have accused the driver of covering her tracks with car repairs and Facebook posts eulogizing the slain dad, saying “rest in peace” and “you’re going to be missed so much.”
Haley Layman, of Grundy County, allegedly took to social media just one day after hitting and killing Bobby Green at the intersection of Rock Avenue and Main Street in Palmer, according to a Grundy County Sheriff’s Office press release.
Local ABC and Fox affiliate WTVC spoke to Green’s daughter, Clara Green, about the Facebook posts and her father’s horrific injuries.
“She hit him so hard that it … tore up his right leg and ripped his pinky off on his right hand,” Clara Green said, recalling how a woman living nearby came to help after Layman reportedly took off and didn’t call 911. “She went and got a flashlight and found him, and she went and got a blanket for him because he said he was cold and sat there and prayed with him,” Clara Green said about the good Samaritan.
