Jacob Austin Smith was 22 when he was killed during an argument that turned deadly on the night of February 27, 2016, in the 500 block of Raintree Street in Opelika, Alabama. The dispute escalated to gunfire around 9 p.m., and Smith sustained a mortal wound.

Opelika Police identified a prime suspect as 19-year-old Malik Dajuan Jacobs, who also frequently used the last name Sistrunk. Investigators said Jacobs and Smith had argued shortly before the shooting, and a murder warrant was issued for Jacobs’s arrest. He was last reported seen in the early morning hours the next day in Barbour County, Alabama; authorities described him at about 5 feet 9 inches, 135 pounds, with gold teeth, and considered him armed and dangerous.

If anyone knew Jacob, saw the incident, or has information about Malik Jacobs/Sistrunk’s whereabouts at the time, please share what can help the investigation.
