Brenda Smith, age 63, died. Teddy Smith was able to get away and call 911.

Stewart County Sheriff Frankie Gray said they’re still searching for Smith's 2005 black Chrysler 300 with Tennessee tags 477-MBC.

Wallace is believed to have loaded the car with stolen items – an important piece of evidence which could help in the prosecution.

Investigators continue to look into the possibility Wallace received some help while on the run. He continues to be questioned and will be in court to formally face his criminal charges tomorrow morning. 

Anyone who sees the vehicle was asked to call authorities.
