Arrest made in Mizzou running back shooting

McKracken County Jail

By Ryan Shiner | COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ) -- A man has been arrested in Paducah, Kentucky, in connection with this past weekend’s shooting of Mizzou running back Ahmad Hardy in Mississippi.

Rashodrick Harris, 20, was arrested on suspicion of two counts of aggravated assault, according to Laurel Police Department Sgt. Macon Davis. He is also facing an additional count in Kentucky for being a fugitive from out of state. He had an arraignment hearing on Friday morning and is being held at the McCracken, Kentucky, County Jail without bond.

Davis said Harris is accused of shooting Hardy and another victim after a concert early Sunday. Davis told ABC 17 News that Laurel police received a tip from someone this week that led to authorities looking at surveillance video by a nearby convenience store.

A victim in the case allegedly identified Harris as the suspect. Davis said Harris was arrested by Kentucky police early Friday.
