Kevonne D. M. Turner, 19, was shot and killed in Newport News, Virginia, on Wednesday afternoon, June 3, 2015. He was found about 5:30 p.m. in front of an apartment building in the 3600 block of Madison Avenue. Born June 30, 1995, to Claudia Turner and Kevin Titus, he was described by family as outgoing, charismatic and funny, and had plans to attend college or enlist in the military.

The shooting shocked the family and community; his mother said she felt broken and crushed. Although there were numerous onlookers at the scene, investigators initially faced reluctance from witnesses to come forward. On June 11, 2015, Newport News detectives arrested a 17-year-old male at his Hampton home; because he was a juvenile his name was not released. The teen was charged with first-degree murder and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony.
