David J. Smith Incident Details
Bennett was taken to the hospital by ambulance by emergency medical services personnel. Investigators were told by the victim's sister that Smith had unexpectedly arrived at her home around 3 a.m. Sunday and appeared to be intoxicated. She allegedly expressed concern by telling police that Smith had previously physically abused her.
Smith first left the house unharmed, but then allegedly returned brandishing what police described as a samurai sword. As soon as Smith accused her of sleeping with other guys and cheating on him, things quickly turned violent. According to the police statement, “M. Smith grabbed [his ex-girlfriend] by the throat.
Then he said that if she wasn't with him, she wouldn't be with anyone else. The woman started screaming for help, fearing for her life. While answering the phone, her brother approached Smith, carrying the gun up the stairs. Smith's child and his ex-girlfriend reportedly entered the room to observe an ongoing argument between them.
According to WDEF Chattanooga CBS, when Bennett and the child arrived on the scene, Smith knocked his ex-girlfriend to the ground. She apparently admitted to authorities that she did not know how the rest of the attack took place. According to the teen, Bennett, his uncle, pushed Smith out the front door while they argued outside the home. The boy claimed that after briefly stopping to help his mother, he went outside and witnessed his father shooting at his uncle.
“[The child] stated that when he went outside, he saw [Smith] lying on his back, just a few feet away, shooting [Bennett] in the head, who was standing over him,” officers allegedly wrote in the affidavit. Smith fled the scene but was arrested the next day. He was arrested and taken to the Hamilton County Jail on $150,000 bail. According to a Tuesday report from WDEF, Bennett's family said he underwent brain surgery and survived the shooting.
According to WTVC, Bennett's sister said her brother "died" trying to save her from her violent ex-boyfriend. Law Crime sent messages to the Chattanooga Police Department, the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office, and the Hamilton County District Attorney's Office requesting clarification regarding the Bennett situation and the charges against Smith, but neither office immediately responded.
