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 woman’s Chevrolet Malibu and threatening her 8-year-old son at gunpoint in late May of 2022. The victim told authorities she’d 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 “Most Wanted” list, including a stint in 2023 where he was also considered the “Top Most Wanted” fugitive. He was last added back to the list in December 2024.

Police said anyone with information as to Smith’s whereabouts should contact MNPD by calling 615-862-8600 or by calling Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.
