On the morning of November 26, 2021, gunfire shattered a home on North 38th Street in Milwaukee. Nineteen-year-old Dawan E. Turner, known as Big Wan, was in an upstairs bedroom of the house he shared with his mother and grandmother when multiple rounds were fired into the residence. He was struck and pronounced dead at the scene. The Milwaukee Police Department is investigating the shooting as a homicide and announced a search for a suspect or suspects; no public arrests have been reported.

Turner was a rising figure in the Milwaukee rap scene, with some of his music videos drawing hundreds of thousands of views. Friends and family described him as lovable and humble, and his manager noted his focus and willingness to learn. Prior to his death, a Dawan Turner was named in 2020 federal charges tied to a drug trafficking investigation; it is not definitively confirmed that this was the same Dawan E. Turner.

Did anyone in the Milwaukee area have contact with Turner or information about the shooting that could help the investigation?
