Karl was waiting with friends after ordering a pizza outside West Cross shopping centre on Sunday 26 April, when by chance he met his killer. Harris, who was also with friends, was hanging around a Hyundai when Karl approached the group. CCTV shows a short conversation took place, before Harris took a few steps closer to him, pulled out a knife and fatally stabbed Karl in the chest.
Callously, Harris and three people ran from the scene towards Oldbury Road, leaving Karl for dead.
Paramedics attempted life-saving surgery on the 31-year-old, but sadly he was pronounced dead at the scene - less than an hour after meeting Harris.
A murder investigation was immediately launched and a manhunt was underway to trace the 20-year-old after video footage circulated on social media.
Enquiries quickly led detectives to a property in Netherton after tracing the owner of the Hyundai, which was left at the scene. A search of the property found Harris hiding in an attic under clothing and he was arrested on suspicion of murder.
A knife was later recovered from a drain in Orchid Close, Smethwick. Forensic tests found this was the same knife used to kill Karl and tossed away as Harris fled.
