Police need leads in July 5 death

8/23/2014

Since Robert Harris was shot dead in the 800 block of Vance Street in July, police have exhausted their leads in trying to find the person or people responsible and are now hoping that the public can phone in tips that will lead to an arrest.

Mr. Harris, 28, was shot twice — one time each in his back and right thigh — about 10:50 p.m. July 5. Mr. Harris later was pronounced dead at Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center. He was the city’s 14th homicide victim of the year.
