Phillip Brendell Allen Smith, 24, was shot and killed at a residence in Arcadia, Florida, on the evening of March 21, 2017. Born April 1, 1992, in Columbus, Ohio, he was a 2010 graduate of River View High School and had been working as a landscaper in Florida. He is survived by his young son Jayce Smith, his parents Brenda Vargas and Carl Smith, Sr., and several siblings and extended family members.

Police arrested 23-year-old Christian Mundo after the shooting; Mundo confessed to the killing and told investigators he confronted Phillip after Phillip allegedly admitted to inappropriately touching Mundo’s 7-year-old niece. Mundo was charged with first-degree murder by the Arcadia Police Department. The family and community were left grieving after Phillip’s death.

Does anyone have information about Phillip’s final days or the events that night in Arcadia?
