CLARKSVILLE, TN (WSMV) -

Clarksville police have issued felony arrest warrants against a man they say runs a company that promised home repair work that never happened.

Jacob Louis Smith, 35, owner of Clarksville Home Exteriors, is accused of taking thousands of dollars from victims to perform repairs or improvement work but never started the projects, shut down the business and has not refunded any down payment money.

Smith faces two felony theft charges, and other charges are pending if there are other victims.

Police say the victims were required to pay half of the contracted price as down payments and the other half upon completion of the work.

Smith is suspected of pocketing at least $4,700 from two victims, and police say other victims are possible.

Anyone with information on Smith is asked to contact Clarksville police at 931-645-8477.
