Tenacious Harris was 20 when he was shot in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, during the winter of 2019. On the evening of Tuesday, February 19, police responded to reports of gunfire on the 1800 block of A Avenue NE and found shell casings in an alley. Shortly afterward officers located a vehicle near Franklin Middle School containing Harris with a critical gunshot wound. He was taken to UnityPoint Health-St. Luke’s Hospital but died there on Sunday, February 24, 2019.

Cedar Rapids Police investigators concluded the shooting was not random and that Harris may have been targeted. The killing was recorded as the city’s first homicide of 2019. In the weeks after the shooting no suspects were publicly identified and no arrests were announced, leaving the case unresolved.
