Oakland, CA – Exactly one year after the tragic death of 24-year-old Juliette Harris, who was fatally shot on July 25, 2024, in the 2000 block of International Boulevard, the Oakland Police Department (OPD) continues its appeal to the public for assistance in solving the case. Harris, also known by her nicknames "Ju-Let" and "Jewels," was found lying in the street after 2 a.m. and pronounced dead at the scene.
The initial KTVU tweet on July 25, 2024, reported the incident as a shooting death. Since then, the investigation has remained active, with authorities consistently seeking new leads. Despite ongoing efforts by homicide detectives, no arrests have been made in connection with Harris's killing.
In the past year, the Oakland Police Department has released details about a vehicle of interest linked to the homicide. Investigators are looking for a white, four-door Toyota Corolla with a spoiler and tinted windows, notably missing hubcaps on the rear driver’s and front passenger’s sides. The OPD has urged anyone with information regarding this vehicle or the incident itself to come forward.
Authorities have emphasized the importance of community cooperation in bringing justice for Harris and her family. The case highlights the persistent challenges faced by law enforcement in solving homicides, particularly those occurring in public spaces. The OPD's Homicide Section remains the primary point of contact for any new information.
