On the evening of Saturday, October 15, 2022, 22-year-old Nathan Hinojosa Jr. was shot in the area of Bellevue and Fountain streets in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Emergency responders and law enforcement arrived and Hinojosa succumbed to his injuries. He is described as a young father who was close to his parents and his daughter.

The Cape Girardeau/Bollinger County Major Case Squad processed the scene, interviewed witnesses, and within hours identified a primary suspect. Shortly after 1:00 a.m. on October 16, 2022, 18-year-old Izaiah James Turner was taken into custody without incident. The Cape Girardeau County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged Turner with first-degree murder and armed criminal action; a judge set bond at $2.5 million, cash only, and he was booked into the county jail.
