A Clarksville man was charged with robbery in connection to a drug transaction that led to a wreck on Madisonville Road Tuesday night.
Christian County Sheriff’s deputies say they were called for a single-vehicle collision and found that 18-year-old Jaden Smith was attempting to sell 83 THC vapes to a juvenile when he pulled off taking the vapes and money.
The juvenile grabbed a hold of the vehicle, and Smith reportedly threatened the juvenile with a gun.
Smith’s vehicle ran off the road and into a ditch, leading to the report of a wreck.
Smith was arrested and charged with third-degree terroristic threatening, receiving stolen property (firearm), tampering with physical evidence, first-degree wanton endangerment, and first-degree robbery.
The handgun used in the crime was previously reported stolen.
