HCSO Investigators Asking for Public’s Cooperation to Identify Two Additional Suspects

 One suspect was killed and authorities are looking for two more suspects after an early morning home invasion in Harrison.

According to a Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office press release, at approximately 1:25 a.m. on Tuesday, deputies responded to reports of a home invasion in the 6300 block of Shirley Pond Road. Upon arrival, they discovered one suspect deceased from gunshot wounds.

The preliminary investigation revealed three armed suspects broke into a home where they were confronted by the homeowner.  Gunfire was exchanged between the homeowner and suspects. One of the suspects was struck during the exchange and died at the scene. Two other suspects jumped through a window to escape and fled the scene.  

Members of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office SWAT, K-9, Patrol Services, Investigative Services and UAS Team (Drone) responded to the scene and searched the immediate area but were unsuccessful in locating the individuals. The identities of those involved are being withheld pending further investigation.

The Sheriff’s Office is working diligently to gather evidence, interview witnesses, and apprehend the suspects involved in this violent incident.

The Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office is requesting the public’s cooperation in providing any relevant information that may aid in resolving this case. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Sheriff’s Office at 423-622-0022.
