Eric Quinell Turner, a 30-year-old African American man, was found with gunshot wounds and died on August 9, 2016, in the 2800 block of North O Henry Boulevard in Greensboro, North Carolina. The Greensboro Police Department identified Turner as a victim at the scene.

The same investigation connected Turner’s death to another killing: Lawrence Lee-Lee Hayes was found unconscious and bleeding on a sidewalk on North Washington Street in Reidsville, North Carolina, and was later determined to be murdered. Turner also suffered a gunshot wound to his leg. The Greensboro Police Department and the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation processed the scenes, conducted interviews and collected evidence, but no clear motive had been established.

Anyone with information that could help resolve these linked shootings is asked to come forward.
