Nashville’s ‘Most Wanted’: Man wanted for stalking, harassment

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — A man accused of stalking and making repeated harassing calls is the latest addition to the Metro Nashville Police Department’s (MNPD) “Most Wanted” fugitives list.

This list is updated every Wednesday on the Metro Nashville Police Department (MNPD) Criminal Warrants Division’s Facebook page . According to detectives, those featured on the list are often considered to be some of the “most violent” offenders in the city.

Most of the fugitives on the “Most Wanted” list are wanted for homicide or sex crimes, but three new names on the list involve a different set of charges, per MNPD.

Since the list was launched in October of 2022, more than 134 who have appeared on it have been apprehended, largely thanks to tips from the public, police said.

Last week, two men who made the “Most Wanted” list for multiple sex crimes were arrested. Adeyemi S. Adebogun, 49, and Diego Camaja-Santiago, 24, were both brought into custody by the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office.

Adebogun was indicted on several felony charges related to the alleged sexual abuse of a child, including aggravated sexual battery involving a victim under 13.

Camaja-Santiago was wanted on felony warrants for two counts of aggravated rape with bodily injury, two counts of statutory rape, and a probation violation.

Here are the names who appear on the department’s “Most Wanted” list for Oct. 16, 2024.

1. Dadiri Muhina

Dadiri Muhina, 23, is still considered the “Top Most Wanted” fugitive, according to the MNPD. This is his sixth week in a row atop the list.

According to police, Muhina is wanted after having been indicted by a grand jury on multiple felony charges. The charges against him include first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, solicitation to commit first-degree murder, attempted murder and tampering with evidence.

Court records show the charges stem from a September 2021 shooting that killed 16-year-old Ja-Niya Birdsong and injured another 17-year-old. Family members told News 2 multiple young men were involved in an argument with the two teens before shots rang out.

Birdsong died at the scene in her grandmother’s driveway in the Paragon Mills neighborhood. She was a junior at Hillsboro High School and hoped to become a hairstylist, according to her family.

While initially the only link to a suspect was a light-colored sedan seen leaving, six people—including Muhina—have since been identified.

As their investigation progressed, detectives said they found text messages between the suspects regarding their plans to destroy the car used in the alleged homicide. Muhina and the other suspects are also accused of conspiring to hire someone to kill a witness.

At least one other suspect in the shooting was taken into custody. However, Muhina has remained at large. Anyone with information on Muhina’s whereabouts is asked to contact the MNPD at 615-862-8600 or Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463 .

2. Adrian L. Cameron

Adrian Cameron, 19, has been on the run since April, according to the MNPD. He’s been at the top of the “Most Wanted” list for several months as police continue to search for him in connection to the death of 32-year-old rapper Chris King .

King was shot and killed just before 2:30 a.m. Saturday, April 20. Investigators said King was hanging out with friends in an alleyway between Hayes and Church streets when they were approached by three other men.

While the interaction began “cordial,” according to King’s friends, the three eventually tried to rob them. That’s when gunfire rang out, injuring King and his 29-year-old friend.

Both were brought to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, but King did not survive.

Cameron, who was out on bond for the 2021 murder of 50-year-old Josh Evans at the time, was identified as a suspect in the shooting days later.

Officials believe Cameron cut his ankle monitor shortly after the shooting. Cameron had just turned 17 years old when police said he turned himself in for Evans’ murder. Evans was found shot and wrapped in trash bags in the Cumberland River in Sept. 2021.

Cameron was arrested again for gun charges in Rutherford County less than four months after turning himself in for the 2021 murder. He’s now charged with criminal homicide in connection with King’s death, as well as failure to appear.

However, efforts to locate him have been unsuccessful. Police said his last location is unknown.

3. Lagarrion L. Blacksmith

Lagarrion Blacksmith, 35, has been toward the top of the department’s “Most Wanted” list for nearly a year as police continue their search for him.

According to police, the injured man told them he and Eddins had gotten into an argument with the suspect inside of the bar. Then, shots were fired as they left the location. At the time, the identity of the alleged shooter was unclear.

Months later, investigators announced Blacksmith had been identified as a suspect. On Nov. 22, 2023, officials said arrest warrants had been issued against Blacksmith for criminal homicide, attempted homicide, and felon in possession of a handgun.

According to investigators, four guns were recovered from the apartment, including one that was reported stolen. Crutcher and 17-year-old Jaylin Brown were reportedly connected to the crime through witness accounts.
