Jason L. Smith, 42, of Columbus, Ohio, died from a gunshot wound on March 21, 2015. Born August 7, 1972, he graduated from Brookhaven High School and was described as someone who enjoyed fishing, hunting, and watching American Pickers. He is survived by his wife Tammy Jo Smith, his father Bud Smith, brother Chris Smith, sister Rainbow Thornton, and several nephews and nieces.

When Carroll arrived, Smith allegedly attacked him and produced a firearm during a struggle; Carroll shot Smith and Smith died of his wounds. An internal review by the Columbus Division of Police found Carroll’s actions were within department policy, and no charges were filed.
