Inset: Jeremiah Smith (Shelby County Sheriff’s Office). Background: The apartment where Smith allegedly abducted a 7-year-old girl from her bed (WHBQ).
A 19-year-old man in Tennessee is accused of abducting a 7-year-old girl from her bed and carrying her away, then returning to the victim’s home several weeks after the child was able to thwart the initial kidnapping.
Jeremiah Smith was taken into custody last week and charged with one count of especially aggravated kidnapping, court documents reviewed by Law&Crime show.
According to a probable cause affidavit, officers with the Memphis Police Department at about 4:05 a.m. on Nov. 6 responded to an apartment complex in the 3200 block of Johnson Avenue regarding a child abduction. Upon arriving, first responders made contact with the victim’s mother, who said her 7-year-old daughter had just come to her room stating “someone took her from her bed” and brought her outside. Fortunately, the child was able to escape her would-be kidnapper and make it back to the home safely.
Officers then spoke to the victim, who described the ordeal in harrowing detail.
