Glenroy Joseph Smith Jr., a 34-year-old male of St. Croix, US Virgin Islands ethnicity, tragically lost his life on August 25, 2017, in Killeen, Texas. He was fatally shot during an early morning drive-by shooting while inside his residence on Allegany Drive. Despite the severity of the crime, no arrests have been made, and the case remains unsolved.
The Killeen Police Department has admitted to giving up on the search for a suspect, although they continue to seek information from the
community. Smith's mother, Catherine Scott, has been vocal about her desire for justice and has even considered adding her own funds to the existing reward for information leading to an arrest. The KPD had announced a $1,000 reward for information, but Scott believes increasing it to $5,000 might encourage someone to come forward.
Smith, known affectionately as "Isaiah," was a hard-working man who moved to Texas from the US Virgin Islands to work at his father's business. He was a loving father to seven children and was well-regarded in his community for his kindness and willingness to help others. His tragic death has left a void in the lives of his family and friends, who continue to seek closure and justice for his untimely passing.
The investigation into Glenroy Joseph Smith Jr.'s murder remains open, and the Killeen Police Department continues to appeal to the public for any information that might help solve the case. Despite the passage of time, the hope for justice and answers persists for Smith's family and the community.
