Authorities have confirmed that Coral Michelle Smith, a 40-year-old woman wanted in connection with a kidnapping and assault case, has no ties to the suspected abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. Smith is wanted for an incident that occurred on May 29 near La Cholla Boulevard and River Road in Tucson, Arizona. The Pima County Sheriff's Department is seeking public assistance in locating her.
The attack involving Smith is reported to have included an assault with a deadly weapon. Court records indicate that Smith has a history of criminal charges, including kidnapping and assault, although a previous kidnapping charge was dismissed. She was convicted of residential robbery in a related case involving a victim under the age of 15.
Smith has served multiple prison sentences and is known to use several aliases, such as "Corral Albright" and "Under the Sea Smith." She is described as approximately 5 feet 6 inches tall, weighing around 136 pounds, with blonde hair and blue eyes. She has distinctive tattoos, including a smiley face and heart on her right ankle, and a rose with flames on her right foot.
The public is advised to call 911 if they see Smith and not to approach her. The Pima County Sheriff's Department has also set up a hotline, 88-Crime, for anonymous tips, offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to her arrest. Meanwhile, the investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance continues, with no suspects publicly identified.
