Robert D. Turner Jr. was 26 when he was fatally shot in Richmond’s Shockoe Bottom neighborhood in the early morning hours of June 18, 2017. The shooting occurred shortly before 3 a.m. near the 17th Street Farmer’s Market as people were leaving local bars and clubs. Two other people, a man and a woman, suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Turner was privately transported to a nearby hospital but later pronounced dead. The Richmond Police Department opened a death investigation and repeatedly asked the public for information, but investigators encountered a lack of witnesses willing to come forward. No arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified; the case is unsolved and remains open.

Does anyone who was in Shockoe Bottom that night or who remembers seeing anything suspicious near the 17th Street Farmer’s Market have information to share?
