Harold Wright, a 25-year-old African American man, was fatally shot on June 8, 2010, on 51st Street in Tampa, Florida. According to investigators, Wright was robbed near his vehicle and died of a gunshot wound to the head.
Investigators later linked the killing to Dontae Morris. Morris’s fingerprints were found at the scene, an acquaintance said Morris had planned to rob Wright, and ballistic testing tied the same firearm to Wright’s death and to other slayings in Tampa. Between May 18 and June 8, 2010, Morris is reported to have killed Derek Anderson, 21, and Rodney Jones, 42, and on June 29, 2010, he shot and killed two Tampa police officers, Jeffrey Kocab and David Curtis, during a traffic stop. Morris was convicted and sentenced to death for the murders of the two officers and Derek Anderson, but prosecutors declined to pursue charges in Wright’s case, so he was not tried for Wright’s murder.
Does anyone have information about Harold Wright or what happened on 51st Street on June 8, 2010?
