A Youngstown television station is reporting that incoming Ohio State freshman Jamel Turner suffered multiple gunshot wounds in an incident that left a young woman dead. Turner is alive and is in critical condition. Per WKBN:
Ohio State Signee Jamel Turner Shot Multiple Times, In Critical Condition At Hospital In Youngstown
A teenage girl is dead and another teen is in critical condition Saturday night after a double shooting on Youngstown’s westside.
Police found 17-year-old Tracy Banks dead from multiple gunshot wounds inside a house on Manchester Street. Police also found 18-year-old Jamel Turner shot mutliple times lying by a stop sign at the corner of Manchester and Oakwood. Turner is an Ohio State Football recruit. He was taken to Saint Elizabeth’s hospital.
Police are searching for another 18-year-old, Melvin Shaw, as a person of interest in this case.
This is not the first time that Turner has sustained a gunshot wound, unfortunately. Back in April, Turner was shot, but the wounds weren’t serious at the time.
There’s been no further word on Turner’s condition or prognosis yet; we imagine there’s plenty more to come, and we hope the news improves from here.
