NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — After two men featured on the Metro Nashville Police Department's list of "Most Wanted" fugitives were arrested last week, the department has released a freshly updated list of suspects.

The longtime No. 2 man sought by authorities, Raceme Crutcher, 23, was taken into custody by the U.S. Marshals Service in Antioch last Wednesday, Aug. 27, while a newer addition to the list, 35-year-old Roderick Majors, was apprehended by Mt. Juliet authorities in Wilson County.

The list is updated each week on the MNPD Criminal Warrants Division’s Facebook page. According to Metro detectives, those featured on the list are often considered to be some of the “most violent” offenders in the city.

Fugitives featured on the list are frequently wanted on indictments for capital offenses like murder or sex crimes; others featured have multiple domestic violence charges.

Since the list was first launched in October 2022, around 180 people featured have been apprehended or surrendered to law enforcement, including those captured out of county or even out of state. In 2025 alone, there have been more than 25 arrests of those featured on the “Most Wanted” list; there were 68 arrests in 2024.

Below is the list of suspects sought by police for the week of Sept. 3, 2025.

De’Tynn Smith, 21, is wanted for multiple felonies, including first-degree premeditated murder, attempted first-degree premeditated murder, aggravated robbery and using a weapon during the commission of a dangerous felony.

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 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.
