* (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) *
Cranston, Rhode Island — On May 23, 2023, Johnston Police were called to Ligian Court for a complaint of suspicious activity. When cops arrived, 44-year-old Thomas May, reported hearing banging noises on the walls outside his home near his daughter's window. May informed police that he'd raised the window blinds and noticed his neighbor, 52-year-old James Harrison, standing outside his house with a ladder. Harrison lived just next door to May. Harrison ran back to his residence. Officers found no evidence of attempted forced entry through the bedroom window and were unable to locate the ladder May claimed seeing. May asked to file a trespass order against Harrison. Officers knocked on Harrison's door and called him, but he did not answer.
Officer Scott Hopkins returned on Wednesday, May 24, in another attempt to reach Harrison and issue him a trespass notice, but when he arrived, he saw Harrison operating a dark blue Buick Encore. Hopkins attempted to turn around to arrest Harrison, but he saw May's 15-year-old daughter laying on the front yard of the house with an apparent gunshot wound, and stopped to aid her. Thomas May was found in the garage with a fatal gunshot wound to the head. May's daughter identified Harrison as the shooter, prompting law officials to issue a "Be on the Lookout" bulletin. The injured girl was taken to Hasbro Children's Hospital in Providence, where she was treated for significant but non-life threatening injuries.
Officers entered 4 Ligian Court, which belongs to Harrison's mother, 83-year-old Janet Harrison. She was found dead with a gunshot wound to the head. A police dispatcher called the Cranston Police Department at 9:30 a.m. to report that James Harrison's vehicle had been seen near St. Ann Cemetery. Officers tracked the vehicle through various jurisdictions before it crashed on Plainfield Pike in Cranston, near the Interstate 295 overpass. Police ordered him out of his vehicle, and the video shows officers scrambling into position behind cruisers and other obstacles before drawing their service weapons. Harrison then got out of his car and pointed a gun at the officers. Police immediately began firing at Harrison and his vehicle, killing him. After about 10 seconds, the gunfire subsided and police rushed over to a visibly bloodied Harrison before putting him in handcuffs. No officers were reported hurt, although some went to a hospital to be evaluated.
