In Loving Memory of David “Lul Dave” Turner

With heavy hearts, we remember David Turner, affectionately known to many as Lul Dave — a young life taken far too soon in a tragic act of violence that rocked the West Seventh neighborhood of St. Paul, Minnesota. His passing leaves a deep void among family, friends, and all who knew him.

On the night of Monday, February 2, 2026, around 10:00 p.m., St. Paul police responded to multiple reports of gunfire on the 100 block of Oneida Street, a quiet stretch in a community known for its spirit and resilience. When officers arrived, they found David, just 24 years old, inside a vehicle — suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the chest. Despite heroic life-saving measures by first responders, David was pronounced dead at the scene. 

The news of this senseless loss spread quickly, leaving so many stunned and searching for answers. The Ramsey County Medical Examiner’s Office is completing the necessary steps to formally identify the victim and determine the cause and manner of death as part of the ongoing process. 

At the time of this writing, no arrests have been made, and the circumstances behind the shooting remain under active investigation by law enforcement authorities. Police continue to canvass the area, reviewing surveillance footage and speaking with potential witnesses in hopes of understanding what led to this devastating moment. 

David’s death marks the second homicide in St. Paul in 2026, a sobering reminder of the fragility of life and the toll of gun violence on families and communities. 

Remembering a Life, Not Just a Tragedy

While news reports capture the facts, they cannot convey the warmth of David’s presence, the laughter he shared, or the dreams he held. Many knew him as “Lul Dave,” a name whispered among friends with affection and familiarity — a moniker that spoke to his personality, his character, and the imprint he left on those around him.

In times like these, those who knew David best — his loved ones — are left with memories of moments that mattered: the shared jokes, the celebrations of birthdays and holidays, the everyday conversations that now carry greater weight. Behind every news headline lies a story of connection, of community, of lives intertwined.

The Impact of Violence

David’s passing is more than a statistic. It is a reminder of the pervasive impact of gun violence — on families who must carry grief in quiet moments and loud celebrations alike, on neighborhoods striving for safety and peace, and on all of us who hope for a better, more just world.

As police continue their work to uncover what happened that night and to hold those responsible to account, community members are left grappling with unanswered questions and aching hearts. Through vigils, shared stories, and collective mourning, the memory of David endures.

To His Family and Friends

To those who loved David:

May you find strength in each other during this unimaginably difficult time. May your treasured memories of him serve as a lasting tribute — a testimony to a life that mattered deeply to so many.

Though the circumstances are painful and the future feels unsettled, David’s spirit lives on in every life he touched. May peace and comfort find you in the days ahead
