just got home just got off work we're
thinking it's an animal and he said no
my name's Robert oh there's a dude in my
room shots shots fired shots
fired shot shot definitely not how I
wanted Father's day to end on the night
of June 18 2023 the cahay police
department in Wisconsin received a
strange series of 911 calls coming from
a block of houses on Carpenter Avenue
officers show up on scene to speak with
Witnesses and what they reveal is
completely bizarre what's going on okay
so across the street not okay so we're
we're facing that way
509 next to small house okay so upstairs
they started they somebody smashed out
from the second floor jumped onto the
small roof and ran so there might be
glass on the other side on the South
Side yes not this BL of Kirkwood yes
okay it's across the street okay you saw
somebody smash glass and jump out of
window no we we heard the smashing glass
and then they jumped out of the window
onto the roof that's the shorter house
so they were on the second floor and
jumped and ran that way okay did you
hear gunshots or anything well we've
heard some freaking sketchy sketchy
stuff 50
to9 your caller observed a house on the
south side of the block heard glass
Smash and saw a subject jump from the
window under the roof of another house
someone breaking through a window and
running across rooftops like Spider-Man
on a Father's Day evening in a quiet
residential area is odd enough but
nothing can prepare the officers for
what happens next see if you can find
phone numbers attempt to make contact
with anybody inside those houses that
can advise if they've had any houses
broken into and or saw or heard anything
suspicious shots shots fired shots
fired nesk I I don't know where the
shots are coming from but they're just
to the east of
us officers on scene answer up I need
Squad numbers make sure everybody's okay
within 10 minutes another shot rings out
this time it's closer to a different
pair of officers one street over from
the first so you want to keep that keep
your gun up like
this and you can use the
garage
I don't know where but they're
just right there right there right there
right there oh that's
okay make sure everybody's okay all
right watch good back on the this way
come on keep an eye out 66 and bar from
here good we just released
our all right your help for this I need
everybody here call Mutual aid for
anybody that's got an officer available
I don't know where the shots are coming
from but that's a second shot that was
just CED oddly this second shot happens
almost immediately after the officer
shines his flashlight Beam on the
detached garage in front of him which in
his report he claimed was in the
direction he thought he heard something
officers are now advised to wait for the
Southshore joint tactical units armored
vehicle to respond with heavy duty
protection gear for the officers as it's
clear someone is shooting if not at the
officers themselves then very close to
them before it can arrive however a
third shot rings out it's got to be
somebody that had a pretty damn good
angle because literally the shot fired
right when I got out of my squad car and
then the second shot as soon as we
started moving huh shot whle past you I
don't I didn't hear a whistle past me
that's the thing I don't know how if
they shot high if you just shot quick I
have no idea deal but the first gunshot
was immediately literally walked around
the front corner of my squad there and
boom the shot went off then my heart
stumping out of my chest I didn't start
my goddamn camera like I showed
off I think I I think
I N shots fired shots
fired front
us he's right in front of it's right in
front of us I don't know where he's
shooting from stay down a total of at
least three shots have been fired in the
span of an hour though this third round
marks the final shot officers will hear
this evening the Tactical armored
vehicle arrives and officers now fully
suited up begin to Canvas the area they
start with the house that Witnesses had
identified as the one the suspect
initially jumped from a house further
confirmed to be the source by a broken
Attic Window which was visible from the
street glass shards littering the
Alleyways between this house and the
neighboring house confirmed that the
suspect indeed broke through the top
floor window and leap to the neighboring
House's roofs heading east before
presumably climbing down somewhere the
house in question is a duplex and
officers manage to call the occupants
and have them exit the home they speak
with the upstairs renter asir Pendleton
first as she is the occupant with access
to the attic the duplex being divided by
floors with separate up and downstairs
departments asira states that members of
the household had been asleep when
officers had called and hadn't heard the
Attic Window shatter although she didn't
notice the attic door was open when they
were evacuating which was unusual we
talked to your neighbor that lives
downstairs she said it's fine for us to
make sure everything's fine in her house
can we make sure everything is fine in
your house we don't we want to make sure
nobody's hurting there nothing like that
would you give us permission to just
check cuz we're going to check the attic
we want to check yours the lower and the
basement to make sure that nobody's
hiding you know so you guys can safely
go back inside is that okay all right
also living at this duplex with asmea
are her mother Carrie Jackson and two
teenage Sons Travis and travel Travis
spoke to police while the rest of his
family waited for other officers to
finish searching the home were you
sleeping or anything or were you have
you been up I heard little loud sound
Harry Jackson as meir's mother would
later confirm to officers that Robert
who was her grandson and her son Ronnie
had indeed visited earlier that day and
left before nightfall both she and asmir
confirmed to police that no one else
should be in the home and that they had
no idea who might have been in the Attic
much less jump through the Attic Window
onto the neighbor's roof with this in
mind officers enter the house and begin
searching clearing the top and bottom
floors before honing in on the attic K
police anybody in the Attic make
yourself
known C
police anybody in the Attic make
yourself known second floor complete
moving to attic after several hours of
searching officers are forced to call
off the search as the glass in the alley
Remains the only trace of the mysterious
roof jumping shooter as Mera and her
family as well as the elderly tenant
downstairs are allowed back in their
homes and police leave the area little
do they know that they will soon be back

figure out what's going on as all let's
get your leg looked out all right it
sounds like the add is up here yeah
agent's up there with the home morning
came home my bottom door was open and
all the stuff from the attic was on the
floor so you just got home just got home
just got off work and all the was from
the attic was on the floor and Mindy's
like there's an animal in the roof and
no he started who said that Mindy my
girlfriend cuz we came up at the same
time okay so we're thinking it's an
animal and he said no my name's Robert
oh there's a dude in my
room okay did he have anything no no
once he heard us in here he said my
name's Robert I'm in the adic then he
tried to come down I didn't know what
the to expect he said he lives right
there have you seen that ever seen this
I've never seen him before well I could
have but I couldn't tell he so covered
in I don't know man on paper for hit run
involv great bodily harm hit run involve
injury and homicide by dangerous weapons
as was just mentioned on the officer's
radio it turns out that Robert has a
serious criminal history he was
convicted of homicide by negligent
handling of a weapon or explosive in
2007 and served 8 years in prison at the
time of this incident he was on
probation and despite his family
claiming he didn't live with them the
Milwaukee Department of Corrections had
their address down as his place of
residence so you see the installation
all over the floor what do you do next I
immediately look up cuz I knew that's
where it came from like none of this was
on the floor so I knew something was in
the Attic we thought it was like a
raccoon or something but then he started
screaming my name's Robert my name's
Robert I said I have a gun get your down
here nothing's Miss missing so you must
have just went right up into the attic
he didn't touch anything he came in here
with my
dog was the dog barking when you got I
mean the dog barks at me if I come home
the dog barks at me if I go to the
bathroom so really nothing suspicious
with the dog then when you came home no
got it okay she say you leave this door
open at night sometimes yeah we let so
the dog can see outside so that door to
the door to the porch is onl yeah we
usually leave the porch door open so the
dog can I never expected anything like
this in this neighborhood that's why I
love cut right no that's quite a shock
when you get home
so what was he asking for he said he
would give you money to help him out or
he asked me to call his grandmother he
said he'd give me $300 on Friday if I
didn't call the police police then began
the arduous process of tracking down the
gun they believe Robert was shooting the
night before starting in the Attic
before moving to the surrounding yards
got a metal
detector he had plenty of time to bury
it that's for sure eventually they
locate the firearm in a fittingly
bizarre place consistent with the theme
of the rest of this case got
it it oh in the grill I get the out of
here nice bet dude way to climb up in
the attic dude
106 yeah we located the firearm
according to the complaint police later
found a spent shell casing in the area
that matched the gun that was located in
the charcoal grill and like Robert the
firearm was also covered in bits of
insulation as for the chalky
multicolored pills found in the baggie
from Robert's pocket the complaint
referred to them as ecstasy Robert
Turner was subsequently charged with
first degree recklessly endangering
safety use of a dangerous weapon
possession of a firearm by a felon and
armed burglary and he remains in custody
currently his initial plea of not guilty
was entered in September and his next
court date is set for early November of
2023 he maintains that he wasn't
shooting at police though gave no clear
alternative explanation for his actions
he also didn't have an explanation for
his obsession with addicts
