Police Seeking Person of Interest- Corey Scott, 22, of Jackson, for Questioning in Jan. 26 Crest View Apartments’ Murder

Jackson police are looking for Corey Scott who is considered a person of interest in the January 26 murder of Harvey Gandy.

Police investigators believe Scott may have valuable information about Gandy’s murder. Investigators are unable to release details about what that information is at this time. There is not an arrest warrant for Scott, and he is only considered a person of interest.

Scott is a black male, 22-years old, 6’ 1” tall and weighs 185 pounds. He sometimes wears eyeglasses. Scott’s last known address is 818 North Highland Avenue Apt. 7 in Jackson.

Anyone with information about Gandy’s murder or Scott’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Jackson Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division at 731-425-8400, Crime Stoppers at 731-424-8477 (TIPS) or submit an anonymous tip online at jmcrimestoppers.org.

Around 6 p.m. Jan. 26, officers responded to a shooting at Crest View Apartments, located at 118 Crescent Avenue, Apartment 210. Gandy, 33, who lived at this apartment, was found inside with an apparent gunshot wound.

Based on preliminary information, police investigators believe Gandy was shot earlier that day, but investigators are not releasing an exact time.

Because there was no evidence of a break-in at the apartment, Gandy may have known the person who shot him.
