Smyrna Police are investigating a man accused of misleading elderly women and gaining money for home repairs that are not accomplished. Police say that 27-year old Johnny R. Lovell and an unknown accomplice have introduced themselves to elderly women claiming to be contractors who will do gutter and roof work. The men then allegedly say they need the full amount of money for the repair up front. One bank refused to cash a check that was written to Lovell after becoming suspicious of the man. If you are familiar with this person of interest you are encouraged to contact the Smyrna Police Department at 459-6644.
