On October 19, 2018, Chad Harris, a 29-year-old African American man, was killed during a home invasion on Cotorro Road in Palm Bay, Florida. He was found dead at the scene; his friend, 23-year-old Ra’Shawn Devante’ Brown, was also shot and later died at a hospital. Harris was one day short of his 30th birthday.

Harris was a volunteer youth football coach for local Pop Warner Peewee teams and is remembered in the community for his commitment to the children he coached. Police say the motive appears to have been robbery. Surveillance footage released by the Palm Bay Police Department shows three suspects, their faces covered, leading Brown into the home at gunpoint and leaving carrying items.

No arrests have been made and the investigation remains open. If anyone has information that could identify the suspects or help the case, please contact the Palm Bay Police Department.
