I've ran into this problem for a while now and I always use the code below:

fuser -k 8000/tcp

I'm on Ubuntu and I have this issue...even tried VSCode's and Pycharm's terminals but got no answer then tried above code and it worked for me.

if you're using mac try any of the following:

lsof -n -i4TCP:8000 
sudo lsof -i tcp:8000 
npx kill-port 8000

if you are using linux:

sudo fuser -k 8000/tcp
