Agents had eyes on killer dad with baby in tow, no AMBER Alert issued, troopers explain 4 weeks 1 day 10 hours ago Monday, May 03 2021 May 3, 2021 May 03, 2021 9:30 PM May 03, 2021 in News Source: WBRZ Share: BATON ROUGE - State Police said an AMBER Alert was not issued for a 4-month-old baby taken on a wild and violent two-state run from the law Monday because the child and its father were within sights of authorities relatively quickly. Eric Smith shot and killed his ex-girlfriend and her nephew in Baker Monday around lunchtime and fled East Baton Rouge with Smith’s 4-month-old child. Less than two hours later, authorities had Smith spotted. After an attempt was made to stop the vehicle he was driving, Smith took authorities on a police chase into Mississippi where he was later shot and killed.
