Jamari Rashaad Smith was 18 and an incoming freshman football player at the University of Alabama at Birmingham when he died on a Wednesday afternoon in May. He was at a lake in Lee County, Alabama, with friends and went swimming. Friends reported he grew tired and slipped beneath the water’s surface.

Friends called 911 and Auburn police and fire medics searched the water. Responders found Smith underwater, began advanced life support, and rushed him to the emergency room at East Alabama Medical Center. He was pronounced dead at 6:05 p.m. The Lee County Coroner’s Office investigated and reported no foul play; his death was treated as an accidental drowning. There were no arrests and no suspects in connection with his passing.

If anyone was at the lake that day or has information about what happened, please share what is known.
