The April 29 shooting happened around 8:30 p.m. in the 1100 block of Old Williamsburg Road in Sandston not far from the Richmond International Airport.

Police sources said officers discovered Johnson shot to death in a car in the driveway of a home.

Neighbors described hearing five or six gunshots. They said Johnson was visiting a friend who lives at the home and children were inside at the time of the shooting.

“We heard gunshots and as soon as we heard them I told the kids to get down cause we didn’t know what was going on,” Marjorie Brittain said.

At the time of the murder, family members confirmed Johnson was a father to several young children.
