Star Country Music Artist Conner Smith Accidentally Hits His Spouse
Sad news from the world of country music, as rising star Conner Smith is caught in a tragic road accident. The young musician drove his Chevy Silverado pickup truck into a 77-year-old woman, Dorothy Dobbins, at a busy intersection in Nashville, Tennessee.
The incident, which occurred on Saturday night around 7:30 PM, took place near the crossroads of 3rd Avenue North and Van Buren Street. Reports gather that Smith did not seem to take notice of Dobbins, who was crossing the street safely within a marked crosswalk at the time.
Initial reports indicate that Smith did not yield the right of way, causing the fatal accident. At this moment, there are no charges against him, as the police continue their investigation to understand the full scope of the incident.
Conner Smith's legal representative has spoken to People magazine, confirming that Smith is indeed involved and expressing his deepest sympathies towards Dobbins' family during this difficult period. He assured that his client is cooperating fully with the investigation.
According to sources close to Smith, he was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs and was not distracted by his phone during the incident.
Incidentally, this crash happened during the much-anticipated CMA Fest weekend in Nashville, where Smith had a performance on Saturday.
Hailing from the heart of country music, Nashville, Smith rose to fame in 2021 when his viral TikTok hit "I Hate Alabama" grabbed everyone's attention. Nominated for Best New Artist at the ACM Awards in 2024, he released his debut album "Smoky Mountains" the same year.
This horrific incident is bound to put a damper on Conner Smith's career, as he is now scheduled to open for country music heavyweights like Luke Bryan in Florida and Brett Young in California.
