In October 2019 Columbia lost 13-year-old Dajion Harris, a student at Oakland Middle School who had previously attended Benton Elementary and was remembered for his happy demeanor and love of sports. On the evening of Saturday, October 19, 2019, Dajion was at a Rice Road residence where a gathering turned deadly after firearms were handled. He sustained a gunshot wound that proved fatal on October 20, 2019.

Investigators reported Dajion was with 19-year-old Cameron White and that both were reportedly under the influence of drugs while handling guns. White later told authorities Dajion had asked him to shoot him during the incident. White was arrested nearby; prosecutors initially charged him with second-degree murder. In early 2021 he pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and armed criminal action and in February 2021 was sentenced to ten years in the Missouri Department of Corrections.

Who in Columbia remembers Dajion or has information about that night at the Rice Road residence?
