Norfolk Police have made an arrest in a homicide that occurred Wednesday, July 16th.

Kareem H. Turner, 26, has been charged with Murder and Use of a Firearm in the Commission of a Felony for the death of 35-year-old Dajuan F. Glover.

Police responded to the area of Jason Avenue and Hancock Avenue around 4:40 a.m. Wednesday morning and discovered Glover suffering from gunshot wounds. He was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Turner is currently being held in the Norfolk City Jail with no bond.

Turner was recently released from jail after murder charges against him were dropped in March.

He was one of two men charged in the 2010 robbery and murder of off-duty Norfolk police officer Victor Decker, slain near a Virginia Beach go-go bar.

Turner’s attorneys found out one of the state’s main witnesses was lying in the case and they could prove it. Commonwealth’s Attorney Colin Stolle conceded that derailed the case and prosecution was stopped.
