Kejuan Jordan-Cole, a 22-year-old man wanted for the fatal shooting of Christopher L. Harris last summer, was arrested after he ran a red light on 12th Avenue South at Deford Bailey Avenue, authorities reported. Jordan-Cole, sought for months in connection with the July 4 murder, was driving a 2020 Nissan Altima when Midtown Hills Precinct officers spotted the traffic violation early April 28, leading to a pursuit.
Upon stopping the vehicle, Jordan-Cole attempted to evade capture by fleeing, triggering a foot chase that ended with his apprehension. After the arrest, it was discovered he had an outstanding criminal homicide warrant, according to the Nashville Metro Police Department.
The chase culminated in the suspect's arrest, unveiling a months-long manhunt for one of the individuals linked to the deadly shooting at Overlook Apartments on Buena Vista Pike. Harris, 27, was identified as the victim who lost his life in a burst of violence that has since haunted the corridors of the apartment complex and the broader community seeking justice.
Following his capture, Jordan-Cole was jailed, his bail set at an imposing $910,000. As the wheels of justice begin to churn, the community watches, hoping for closure in a case that has gripped the city with grief and yearning for resolution. The swift end to the fugitive's run from the law sends a clear message, crime—and even those who flee—inevitably comes to a halt before the stern face of justice.
