Investigators believe Smith fatally shot Brice inside his car.
That car was found engulfed in flames in the area of 59th and Florence streets in Philadelphia just hours after Brice and Smith were seen at K Laundry in Yeadon on March 30.
No one was found inside the vehicle. The car was discovered about a mile from where police said Brice's body was discovered in the woods days later.
Last week, Philadelphia police announced the arrest of 21-year-old Tylydia Garnett in connection with Brice's death. She was charged with arson, abuse of a corpse and related offenses.
Investigators said Garnett was seen on video buying gasoline before returning to a garage that was either rented or owned by Smith.
They loaded a something into Garnett's car, which is believed to be Brice's body.
Investigators said Garnett then followed Smith to the location on Eastwick Avenue where Brice's body was found.
The Philadelphia District Attorney's Office said Garnett fled to Florida after helping to dispose of Brice's body. She was released after posting 10% of $75,000 bail.

Brice's mother, Betty Cellini, said her daughter had a young son and was 14 weeks pregnant. She also had a life-threatening medical condition that required medication.
Before Brice vanished, Cellini said her daughter and Smith were involved in an argument.
On April 9, Smith was charged with murder and related offenses.
The FBI said Smith should be considered armed and dangerous.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the local FBI office.
