On the evening of November 9, 2021, 43-year-old Latoshia Johnson was found unresponsive inside a residence on the 4300 block of East Linwood Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri. Kansas City Police Department officers responded just before 8:30 p.m. and discovered Johnson suffering from a fatal gunshot wound; she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Johnson’s death was recorded as the city’s 133rd homicide of the year and occurred on the same block where an earlier fatal shooting had taken place in 2021, an ongoing pattern that drew community leaders and clergy to the area to call for peace. Police said they had not identified a suspect in Johnson’s killing and did not release details about what led up to the shooting; no arrests or suspect descriptions specific to her case were publicly reported at that time.
