Chris Turner was 27 when he was shot and killed in Durham, North Carolina, on April 14, 2016. Turner, a former guard for East Carolina University’s men’s basketball team who had recently been released from prison after serving 18 months for felony theft convictions, was found in a yard in the 400 block of East Piedmont Avenue about 3:30 a.m. with a gunshot wound. He was taken to a nearby hospital and later died. Reports say he was shot three times, twice in the chest and once in the back.

Investigators treated the shooting as not appearing to be random. Twin brothers Ari and Jordan Shlasinger, both 26, were arrested and charged in the murder and held in Durham County Jail without bond; a magistrate denied bond and their next hearing was scheduled for May 5, 2016. Turner’s mother, Shonda Hughes, recalled his last words as Mom, I love you, and a stepbrother, Kellen Corley, said the shooting was payback for a 2013 robbery, though it was not gang-related.

Anyone who knew Turner or has information about the April 14 shooting is asked to come forward.
