Bodycam shows arrest of man who allegedly hunted younger girlfriend down at bar, shot and ran her over

Christopher ‘Dodge’ Smith, 40, allegedly ran over the victim with his SUV and drove off before deputies stopped him

A Florida man is facing charges after deputies say he shot his girlfriend and then proceeded to run her over with his vehicle while his child was in the car.

It happened after the couple allegedly got into an argument across the street from a bar in Safe Harbor, Florida.

The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office said Christopher “Dodge” Smith, 40, is the man behind the attack.

Deputies named his girlfriend Jessica Antolini, 30, as the victim.

According to a criminal complaint, Smith showed up at a bar on Tuesday just before 9 p.m. and appeared to be “hunting” the victim down, witnesses said, adding he looked “possessed.”

The complaint says once the suspect found his girlfriend, they got into an argument outside the bar where he allegedly shot her in the face.

After gunning her down, deputies say he ran her over with his SUV and sped off from the scene with his 5-year-old child also in the car — leaving the victim behind.

“Detectives say multiple 911 calls reporting the śh́óóting were received from witnesses who also provided information about Smith’s vehicle,” the report says.

Responding to those numerous calls, deputies arrived on scene and later located Smith’s SUV and tried to pull him over.

He did not comply, deputies say, to which his “vehicle was immobilized.”

Bodycam, dashcam and aerial video released by PCSO appear to show a deputy vehicle successfully pulling off a PIT maneuver of his SUV.

He was arrested on charges of attempted first-degree murder and child 𝘢bu𝘴e following the pursuit.

His girlfriend is still in the hospital in ᑕriᩚtiᩚcal condition; the child inside the vehicle was not injured in the incident and was reunited with family.

Smith is sitting inside a Pinellas County jail cell with no bond due to the charge of attempted first-degree murder.
