Harold Andrew Major, 31, was fatally shot while sitting in his tent on the evening of Saturday, November 7, 2020, at S.E. 33rd Avenue and S.E. Powell Boulevard in Portland, Oregon. Two stray bullets struck him, one piercing his neck and another hitting his upper back; he died before reaching the hospital. No suspect has been identified or arrested and the shooting remains unsolved.

Harold was one of eight people experiencing homelessness killed in homicides in Portland in 2020 and one of six homeless victims of gun violence that year. Neighbors remembered him for keeping campsites tidy and picking up trash. Born September 16, 1989, he moved often as a child and stayed close to his sister Crystal. He had a criminal conviction from age 19 and later struggled with methamphetamine addiction; Crystal helped and housed him for a time after his release.

Crime Stoppers has posted a $2,500 reward for information leading to an arrest. Did anyone in the area see or hear anything that night, or have information that could help identify the shooter?
