According to Jefferson County Deputy Coroner Wayne Pryse, both people lived at the home and both died from gunshot wounds.

A man who said he was a friend of Turner’s says he is heartbroken after hearing about his death.

“[He was] a well-liked, well-known individual,” Vincent Henderson said. “Business owner, [a] person that would do anything or go out of their way to help anybody.”

So far, no arrests have been made. Anyone with information in the case is asked to call the police tip line at 574-LMPD. Callers can remain anonymous.
