Hannah Smith, known for her appearance in the sixth season of “Love Island USA,” was recently arrested after an altercation involving a law enforcement officer just outside Atlanta, Georgia on September 30.
Police records reveal that Smith faces charges of making terroristic threats and willful obstruction of a law enforcement officer, both of which are classified as felonies. The incident unfolded when the 26-year-old was being disorderly at a music event in Atlanta and had to be removed from the premises. During her removal, she reportedly tried to punch an officer. After being restrained with handcuffs, she then allegedly attempted to kick the officer multiple times.
While being transported to the correctional facility, Smith is reported to have made repeated death threats towards the officer and his sister. Despite her legal troubles, Smith has been actively engaging with her followers on social media, posting updates and content about her life.
Since gaining popularity on “Love Island USA,” where she briefly dated fellow contestant Kendall Washington before being eliminated on the tenth day, Smith’s recent run-in with the law adds to the continuing drama surrounding participants of the reality TV series. This incident occurs amidst recent controversies in the international “Love Island” scene, such as the breakup of former contestants Molly Lae Hague and Tommy Fury after five years together. The American edition of the show has enjoyed success on Peacock since its launch in 2019.
After her arrest, Smith secured her release from Cobb County Jail by posting a $8,000 bond. As part of her bond conditions, she must undergo random alcohol and drug screenings at her expense and abstain from consuming alcohol, marijuana, or other drugs.
As of now, Smith has remained silent on the specifics of the incident, continuing to engage her audience on social media without addressing the details of her arrest directly.
