Ohio State Recruit Jamel Turner Wounded in Shooting

Ohio State University football recruit Jamel Turner is in critical condition after being shot multiple times early Saturday morning in his hometown of Youngstown, Ohio. Police say 17-year-old Tracy Banks was killed in the shooting.

According to reports, Banks was babysitting a 4-year-old girl when the shooting occurred. Banks and her boyfriend, Melvin Shaw, had been arguing before the shots were fired. The girl was unharmed. Turner was found shot near the house. Shaw is considered a suspect, but is not in police custody.

Turner signed with the Ohio Buckeyes in February.

“I'm so sad to hear of Jamel's misfortune. I have not communicated with Jamel, but am certainly praying for him at this time,” Ohio State head football coach Jim Tressel said in a statement Saturday.
