On June 16, 2013, Tevin Christopher “Smook” Williams turned in himself to the Nashville Police Department, in Nashville, TN. He was arrested on the outstanding warrant issued in Kanawha County, WV, for armed robbery. The warrant was issued following the investigation of a home invasion style robbery in the 5300 block of Elaine Drive, Rand, WV.
