The charges are in connection to the June 13 shooting death of 37-year-old LaJuan DeAngelo Black, and the shooting of another person, according to his indictment.
Dayton police were called to a report of a shooting in the 2700 block of Wentworth Avenue, where they found two gunshot victims. Both were taken to a local hospital but Black died from his injuries, according to a release from the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.
“Further investigation determined the defendant had approached a vehicle that had three occupants inside and fired multiple rounds into the vehicle, striking the two victims, before fleeing,” the release stated.
At the time of the shooting, Harris was free on bond on two pending cases following his indictment for assault on a police officer, aggravated possession of drugs, possession of cocaine, obstructing official business and resisting arrest in one case and receiving stolen property - motor vehicle and aggravated possession of drugs, the prosecutor’s office said.
Harris is held in the Montgomery County Jail.
