An early Fourth of July celebration at JROC’s nightclub in Natchez turned deadly in 2026. Deputies from the Adams County Sheriff’s Office were called to Lower Woodville Road around 5:44 a.m. after multiple reports of shots fired. Investigators found 31-year-old Michael Minor Jr. and 32-year-old Randolph Hannon with fatal gunshot wounds. A third person, Lashonda Harris, was wounded and taken to Merit Health in a private vehicle before law enforcement arrived.

After an extensive investigation, detectives arrested a suspect identified as Norman and charged him with the murder of Michael Minor Jr. and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for the shooting of Lashonda Harris. The probe into Randolph Hannon’s death remains active as detectives work with the District Attorney’s Office to review evidence and consider additional charges.

If anyone was at JROC’s that morning or has information about the shootings, please share what was seen or heard with the Adams County Sheriff’s Office.
