In the late spring of 2014, the life of 20-year-old Delshawn Harris was tragically cut short in a burst of violence that also claimed the life of his close friend. A young man known to many by his nickname 'Bear,' Harris, a male, was a resident of Millville, New Jersey, where he had attended Millville High School. He was an active member of the Boys & Girls Club in nearby Vineland, where he pursued an interest in boxing.
His life, however, came to a sudden and violent end on the evening of May 20, 2014.
That evening, on Buck Street in Millville, a pre-planned one-on-one fight was scheduled to take place. The confrontation drew a crowd of supporters for both sides, escalating the tension in the area. What was intended to be a fistfight spiraled out of control, and in the ensuing chaos, gunshots rang out. Both Delshawn Harris and his 20-year-old best friend, Pablo 'P.J.' Caban, were struck by multiple bullets. Harris was pronounced dead at the scene, while Caban was rushed to Cooper University Medical Center in Camden, where he succumbed to his injuries during surgery. The two friends, described as being nearly inseparable, died on the same day.
The investigation into the double homicide was a joint effort between the Millville Police Department and the Cumberland County Prosecutor's Office. Their work led to the arrest of a suspect, 29-year-old Kevin Lamar Hall, also a resident of Millville. Hall was subsequently charged with two counts of murder and multiple weapon offenses in connection with the deaths of Harris and Caban. While an arrest was made, authorities indicated at the time that they were still seeking another individual who was involved in the initial planned altercation. Further details regarding the legal proceedings and the outcome of the case against Kevin Lamar Hall are not readily available in public online sources.
