Smith has previous criminal history in Nashville, according to police records.
In 2022, Smith, then 18, was charged with another 18-year-old with carjacking, evading arrest and vehicle theft.
According to MNPD, Smith and Alan Beverly admitted to carjacking a womanâs Chevrolet Malibu and threatening her 8-year-old son at gunpoint in late May of 2022. The victim told authorities sheâd gone into a Jefferson Street market around 8:30 p.m. when the passenger of a Ford F-150 pickup truck got out and approached her car, threatening her son with a pistol and pushing him out of the car.
Detectives located the vehicle at a Walmart on Dickerson Pike. Both Smith and Beverly fled on foot but were apprehended. Smith also tossed the pistol, which was recovered by police.
Smith has made multiple appearances on the âMost Wantedâ list, including a stint in 2023 where he was also considered the âTop Most Wantedâ fugitive. He was last added back to the list in December 2024.
Police said anyone with information as to Smithâs whereabouts should contact MNPD by calling 615-862-8600 or by calling Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.
2. Raceme L. Crutcher

Raceme Crutcher, 23, has been on the run from police for more than a year, after he was named one of two suspects in a deadly Fourth of July shooting in 2023.
Officials said the shooting happened at the Fallbrook Apartments on Dellway Villa Road. Etabo Malanda, 16, was reportedly standing on the porch of an apartment when two armed individuals came from around the corner and confronted him.
