Sylville K. Smith had a lengthy criminal past, but was just trying to survive in the inner city, William Brookins told The Associated Press. Smith, 23, was shot and killed Saturday after a brief foot chase that followed a traffic stop. According to a criminal complaint, Smith and another man were seen removing fans from their boxes and putting the DVDs in the boxes. According to a complaint, Smith and the man got into a car chase before the man finally stopped and ran on foot. As that case was pending, Smith was charged with felony intimidation of a witness — the man he was accused of shooting at.
