\nA man charged in a homicide last weekend in the Russell neighborhood has now been booked into Louisville Metro Corrections.<\/p>\n
David Alan Smith, 62, of Louisville, is charged with one count of murder.<\/p>\n
On the morning of February 5, Louisville Metro police were called to a boarding house in the 2700 block of West Jefferson Street after the body of 58 year-old Christopher Adams was discovered. Adams had been beaten and stabbed.<\/p>\n
Smith and Adams both lived at the boarding house.<\/p>\n
Other residents of the boarding house told detectives they saw Smith push Adams through a door and hit him with a can of paint and a pot. The witnesses said Smith was armed with a knife at the time.<\/p>\n
While the investigation was ongoing, Smith called one of the witnesses and agreed to speak with a detective over the phone. During the call, Smith admitted to striking Adams multiple times. Smith also said he wanted to turn himself in.<\/p>\n
Bond for Smith has been set at $50,000 cash. He will be arraigned Saturday morning.
