Greenville Police Department arrested Charles Anthony Smith, a violent offender from Greenville, on April 17, 2024. Smith had an open warrant for Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon stemming from an incident on October 17, 2023. Despite a $100,000 bond, he was released on October 20, 2023, through Taylor Bail Bonds. However, Smith failed to appear in court on the scheduled date, prompting the issuance of another warrant for his arrest.
On April 13, 2024, an additional charge of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon was leveled against Smith. During his arrest, he became combative with officers, leading to the addition of a Resisting Arrest charge. Consequently, Smith's total bond amount has been set at $144,000.
