Aldrict Hill, Jr., 25, was shot multiple times and pronounced dead at the scene on Center Street in South Clarksdale after police were called at about 10:12 p.m. on February 22, 2024. His death was the fifth homicide in Clarksdale that year, and investigators from the Clarksdale Police and the Coahoma County Sheriff’s Office responded.

A 17-year-old male juvenile was taken into custody and charged with murder in connection with the fatal shooting; authorities did not release the teenager’s name. Police previously identified a person of interest and said the investigation remained ongoing, but have not disclosed a motive.

At the time of his death, Hill was on the Coahoma County Circuit Court docket with three others, facing charges that included shooting into a dwelling and shooting into a motor vehicle, each with firearm enhancements. Does anyone have information about Hill, his activities in South Clarksdale, or the events that night?
