On July 9, 2001, Derrick Harrison was tragically shot and killed at 3401 McHenry Avenue, Apartment #6, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was 42 years old at the time of his death. The Cincinnati Police Department responded to the incident, but the case remains unsolved, and no suspects have been publicly identified. The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) has listed Harrison’s death among its unsolved homicide cases in an effort to raise awareness and seek public assistance for information that
could lead to an arrest.
The shooting took place in Hamilton County, and although there has been an investigation, no significant breakthroughs have been reported. The Ohio Attorney General's Office has continued to list Harrison’s case in its unsolved homicide database to encourage anyone with information to come forward, offering potential leads that might help bring closure to Harrison's family and friends. Public appeals for tips remain ongoing, and law enforcement urges those who might know anything about the incident to share any details they may have.
The Ohio BCI plays a key role in highlighting such cold cases, as their goal is to bring visibility to unresolved homicides. By involving the community, they hope to increase the chances of solving cases like Derrick Harrison's, helping provide answers to the victim's loved ones and holding those responsible accountable for their actions.
