Katron Harris Jr., 17, was shot and killed on the night of October 31, 2022, in Kansas City, Kansas. A senior at Turner High School who played wide receiver and worked at the school’s coffee shop, Katron was described by family and coaches as friendly and well-liked, with plans to start a t-shirt business after graduation. He was attending an invite-only Halloween party on South 50th Street when a group of older, uninvited masked people were asked to leave and then returned and opened fire. Six other teenagers suffered non-life-threatening injuries; Katron was the only person killed.

The Kansas City, Kansas Police Department said the shooters fled in a dark-colored SUV and investigators initially sought as many as six suspects. The Wyandotte County Prosecutor’s Office charged 22-year-old Daijon Estell in connection with Katron’s death, while police indicated additional suspects remained at large. Anyone who knew Katron or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
