Cholly Demarcus Lamont Harris Jr., 19, was shot during a dispute on the evening of September 20, 2021, in the 1700 block of Hazen Street in Knoxville, Tennessee. He was taken to the University of Tennessee Medical Center but died of his injuries. Several people who were at the scene were detained for questioning, including witnesses and a potential male suspect, but no charges have been filed. The case was referred to the Knox County District Attorney’s Office for review and remains an active, unsolved homicide for the Knoxville Police Department’s Violent Crimes Unit.

Harris is remembered by his family and friends as a helpful and loving person. He is survived by his parents, siblings, and a young son; the community held a homegoing celebration in his memory. Does anyone who was in the Hazen Street area on September 20, 2021, or who knew Cholly have information that could help investigators?
