Men involved in Collinsville shooting injured and arrested


Jamel Daeshaun Turner and Da'Rehyon Monte Rucker


On Sunday around 6:42 pm, the Martinsville/Henry County 911 Center received multiple calls about shots being fired at the Tobacco and Vape Shop located at 2954 Virginia Ave., Collinsville.


Deputies with the Henry County Sheriff's Office responded to the scene.


When they arrived on the scene, they discovered that a Ford Escape, which was later determined to be involved in the shooting, was wrecked in Hardee's parking lot.


The vehicle was vacant but had what appeared to be blood in it.


A short time later, another call came in about two male subjects inside Wendy's, located at 2801 Virginia Ave. Collinsville, yelling for help.


One of the male subjects was bleeding.


Before deputies could arrive, the two males ran out of Wendy's and went across the street to the Valero gas station.


Deputies were able to locate one of the males inside the gas station.


He didn't have any injuries.


The second male subject was located in the Collinsville Plaza parking lot, which is adjacent to the Valero gas station.


The male subject was identified as Jamel Daeshaun Turner, 24 years of age, 3305 Sunset Rd., Collinsville, Virginia.


Turner had apparent gunshot wounds to his right arm and left leg.


He was transported to SOVAH Health of Martinsville, where he was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.


While deputies were dealing with Turner, another male subject with a gunshot wound to his torso came into the ER at SOVAH Health of Martinsville.


That male subject was identified as Da'Rehyon Monte Rucker, 22 years of age, 523 Glendale St., Martinsville.


Deputies responded to the hospital and were able to determine that Rucker was involved in the shooting at the Tobacco and Vape Shop.


He was also treated at SOVAH Health for non-life-threatening injuries.


During the investigation, neither victim was cooperative.


However, surveillance footage from the Tobacco and Vape Shop showed how the incident took place.


Turner had driven to the Tobacco and Vape Shop so that a family member could go inside to purchase some items.


As he was sitting in the vehicle, Rucker arrived and parked next to Turner's.


Rucker then got out of his vehicle to go inside the store.


As he is walking away from his vehicle, Turner steps out of his vehicle and begins shooting at Rucker.


Rucker can then be seen running away and going around the corner of the building.


Turner then got back into his vehicle, and as he was driving

away, Rucker could be seen coming back around the corner of the building with a pistol, where he began to fire it at Turner's Ford Escape as it drove away.


Rucker continues to fire his pistol at the vehicle as it is driving across Virginia Ave and into Hardee's parking lot, where it eventually struck a power pole.


Turner and his family member can then be seen running away

from the accident scene.


Due to both Turner's and Rucker's involvement in this incident, they have been

arrested for the following criminal charges:
