The suspect, Deleon Delvontaye Davis, 25, is charged with murder in the 180th State District Court. A March 2024 booking photo of Davis, who is not in custody, is attached to this news release.

HPD patrol officers responded to a shooting at the above address and found Mr. Harris unresponsive in the parking lot. He had been shot multiple times. Houston Fire Department paramedics responded to the scene and pronounced Harris deceased.

Witness statements and evidence from the scene indicated Harris and the unknown suspect may have been arguing previously in the day. The suspect later shot at Harris, striking him multiple times, before fleeing the scene in his vehicle.
