OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On September 7, 2024, at approximately 1:37 a.m., a Rome Police Department officer observed a black Dodge Charger speeding eastbound after turning from Lavender Drive onto Shorter Avenue. The officer initiated a pursuit but allegedly discontinued due to the Charger's excessive speed, which exceeded 90 miles per hour. A BOLO (be on the lookout) was issued to nearby units.

Another officer traveling south on Riverside Parkway spotted the Charger still speeding eastbound on Turner McCall Boulevard. The officer attempted to join the chase when the Charger collided head-on with a Honda Accord near Dogwood Drive.

The collision resulted in the deaths of Malik Chris'Tyle Henderson, 23, who was a front-seat passenger in the Honda Accord, and 23-year-old Kadrian Lamirical Harris, who was driving.
