Great Falls Terrace Murder Suicide

UPDATE 1/21/21 (9:59am):

The suspect has been identified as 70 year old Allyn Harry Harris of 912 Great Falls Terrace. While completely nude, Harris fired multiple rounds into a vehicle murdering a woman in the driveway of their home. The vehicle, while still in reverse, rolled across the street into a neighbors fence.

The victims identity will not be released per Marsy’s Law, which protects the rights of crime victims and their families.

This is still an open and active investigation.

Charlotte County, FL- Around 9:30 this morning, a call was placed into dispatch reporting multiple shots fired heard on Great Falls Terrace. When deputies arrived they found a single female victim in the driver seat of her vehicle. Multiple rounds were fired into the vehicle striking the female.


After investigation, deputies learned that the suspect who shot into the vehicle – which was located in the driveway – had fled back inside the home, where he remained for hours.


Aviation and SWAT were on scene while members attempted to make contact with the suspect. After hours of unsuccessful attempts to make contact via agency negotiators, the SWAT team used additional resources to confirm the suspect was, in fact, deceased inside the home.

Names of those involved will not be released at this time as next of kin have not been notified.
