Jalesseazay Posey, 22, a Black male, was shot in the early morning hours of September 25, 2025, on Delta Road near the Southern Village Shopping Center in Springfield, Ohio. Officers arrived about 3:10 a.m. and found Posey with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to Mercy Health – Springfield and pronounced dead soon after.

Multiple frantic 911 calls described a chaotic scene; one caller said ten shots were fired. A man who identified himself as the shooter told dispatchers he had been making a DoorDash delivery and claimed he fired in self-defense, saying the other man had a gun and ordered him to get in the car. A 9mm Beretta Nano recovered from the suspect had been reported stolen years earlier in Trotwood; police said there was no clear evidence the suspect knew that.

Springfield police arrested 25-year-old Charles Tanturri II within days; a Clark County grand jury indicted him on October 7, 2025, on two counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, and two counts of improperly discharging a firearm at or into a habitation. He was booked into the Clark County Jail on $500,000 bond. Family and friends held services for Posey in early October. Anyone with information about the shooting on Delta Road is asked to come forward.
