Caleb Smith, 24, of Opa-locka, Florida, was shot and killed on October 5, 2018, in what authorities believe was a road rage incident. Smith was driving eastbound on Northwest 135th Street when an altercation with another driver, 22-year-old Jahsie Mahoney, escalated. Mahoney exited his vehicle, produced a firearm, and shot Smith. Smith was taken to a hospital but died of his injuries.

Mahoney called 911, remained at the scene, and was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. He has been held without bond. Investigators have relied on witness accounts and surveillance footage as they reconstruct the sequence of events; the precise circumstances that led to the confrontation remain somewhat unclear.

The shooting has had a strong effect on the Opa-locka community and Smith’s family. Does anyone have information about that stretch of Northwest 135th Street or the parties involved that could help clarify what happened?
