Jonte Turner arrested in connection with shooting death of Michael Williams

SAN ANTONIO – A 20-year-old man was charged with murder Thursday in connection with a fatal shooting at a Northeast Side flea market.

Jonte Turner has been taken into police custody.

According to an arrest warrant affidavit, Turner ran into the victim, Michael Williams, at the Eisenhauer Road Market Center on April 18. The two exchanged words before Turner waited for Williams outside the building and shot him.

The affidavit said witnesses told police that Williams had an ongoing feud with Turner's older brother.

Police showed surveillance video to the witnesses, but they did not recognize the shooter as the man he had been feuding with. After releasing the video to the media, police received a tip from someone who identified Turner.
