Man arrested in connection to 2014 Baton Rouge shooting, killing 7-year-old boy

BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — The East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office arrested a suspect in connection with the deadly shooting of a 7-year-old in a 2014 shooting. On Monday night, deputies arrested Rashad Montreal Turner, 32, for the connection in Terrez Coleman's death in the 8900 block of Prescott Road on Aug. 16, 2014. According to the affidavit, Coleman and his family were driving on Prescott Road when a vehicle passing in the opposite direction reportedly fired a shot. The family learned that an 11-year-old female in the backseat was grazed by the bullet, and Terrez had been struck. The family sought medical attention from a nearby fire station. On Nov. 22, 2016, deputies conducted a traffic stop of a vehicle in the 6100 block of Antioch Road. The driver was identified as Turner. During the stop, deputies recovered drugs and a stolen Smith and Wesson handgun. Turner was arrested on drug and gun charges. On March 24, 2017, detectives were alerted that the Smith and Wesson handgun had led to a fired bullet casing at the scene on Prescott Road. The affidavit states the handgun was reported from Ruston during a vehicle burglary around Sept. 16, 2013. Detectives learned that, at the time, Turner was a student at Grambling State University, which is located near Ruston. After reviewing Turner's cell phone records, cellular towers placed him in proximity to the vehicle burglary. Using newly available investigative tools and technology, including digital forensic analysis and open-source intelligence software, detectives linked Turner to both the weapon theft and the homicide. Evidence placed Turner at the scene of the shooting in 2014. Turner was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on charges of first-degree murder and four counts of attempted first-degree murder.
