Harry Uncle Buck Lee Adams, 58, was found fatally shot in his bedroom at a rental home on Industrial Park Road Northeast in Brookhaven, Mississippi. The first police response came about 3 a.m. on April 11, 2018, after a report of gunshots; officers initially found nothing and left. The same caller returned in daylight, saw multiple bullet holes in the eastern wall of Adams’ home, and alerted police again. When officers’ knocks went unanswered they obtained permission from Adams’ niece to enter and discovered his body.

Family described Adams as a quiet, disabled man, a cancer survivor and diabetic who enjoyed fishing and kept a worm garden. He reportedly had little of material value and no known ties to illicit activity. The Brookhaven Police Department and the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department investigated, and neighbors held a watch meeting afterward. No arrests or suspect identifications have been reported in connection with the shooting.

If anyone knew Harry, his routines, or saw activity around his home that morning, please come forward with information.
