Jamaris JaQuan Smith, 20, was shot and killed the evening of August 5, 2016, at the intersection of San Diego Road and N. 42nd Street in Fort Pierce, Florida. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots and saw a gray, four-door Acura leave the scene. First responders found Smith and a 17-year-old male who had been grazed by a bullet; Smith was pronounced dead at the scene by St. Lucie County Fire Rescue.

Deputies located and stopped a vehicle matching witnesses’ description and detained two suspects, 18-year-old Bendrell J. Johnson and 17-year-old Marcus Dewayne Jones. Johnson was charged with first-degree murder and attempted first-degree murder; Jones was implicated as an accomplice. Johnson later received two consecutive life sentences for his role in the shooting.
