Elderly Man Dies Months After Alleged Attack by DoorDash Driver

Lloyd Poole's passing on May 16, 2026, follows months of medical complications after he was allegedly assaulted by Turner on December 28, 2022. Poole confronted Turner about speeding in their neighborhood, which escalated into a physical confrontation. According to reports, after being punched, Poole fell and suffered a severe head injury, resulting in extensive medical treatment, including multiple brain surgeries.

Turner, who had previous convictions related to road rage, turned himself into police shortly after the incident. He had been charged with aggravated assault but was out on bond at the time of Poole's death. The Oakland County Prosecutor's Office is now considering upgrading the charges against Turner to account for the homicide, as the medical examiner ruled the cause of death as blunt force head trauma.

Poole's family expressed their devastation, highlighting how the incident tragically altered their lives. His stepdaughter, Lindsey Gonzalez, remarked on the impact this has had on their family, stating that their plans for retirement and travel had been dashed.

DoorDash has responded by condemning the violence and assuring that Turner was permanently removed from their platform, pledging cooperation with law enforcement in pursuing justice.

As the case progresses, the implications of this tragic event raise significant conversation points about community safety and accountability for aggressive behavior.
