3 Men Charged In Shooting Of Stamford Resident: Police

STAMFORD, CT — Stamford police on Tuesday announced the arrests of three men in connection with a shooting that injured a 36-year-old resident in early September.

Terrance Summons, 31; Davell Cotterell, 31; and Danny Turkvan Jr., 33, all of Stamford, were recently arrested on warrants and face several charges, according to police.

On Sept. 6 at approximately 2:22 a.m., Stamford police officers responded to the area of Mission Street and West Street following reports of gunshots and a woman screaming.

Arriving officers found a man who was suffering from gunshot wounds, police said, noting he was shot once in the abdomen and once in the arm. The man was taken to Stamford Hospital for treatment.

"Detectives learned that the victim and a friend were walking on Mission Street when a male dressed in black approached them on foot, asked for the victim by name, and then fired multiple gunshots," police said in a news release, noting detectives identified Summons as the shooter.

Police said "an extensive canvass" of surveillance video after the shooting helped identify the arrestees.

"The Stamford Police Department thanks the public for its assistance with this investigation. Information provided by members of the community contributed significantly to the successful identification of the suspects and resolution of the case," police said.

On Sept. 17, Stamford police executed nine search and seizure warrants on the arrestees, their vehicles and residences, with the help of the Bridgeport Police Department and the Stamford Police Special Response Team.

"Evidence recovered through those warrants and additional follow-up searches furthered the investigation and a total of six firearms were seized," police said.

Summons was charged with first-degree assault; first-degree conspiracy to commit assault; criminal possession of a firearm; first-degree reckless endangerment; and unlawful discharge of a firearm. He was given a court-set bond of $500,000.

Cotterell and Turkvan were both charged with first-degree conspiracy to commit assault and first-degree assault as an accessory. Their bonds were set at $250,000 each.
