Mye Johnson, a 27-year-old Black woman and an NYPD school safety agent since 2017, was killed the early morning of December 23, 2021, while celebrating her birthday with friends in Astoria, Queens. She was with her twin sister and others at the Solletto Lounge on Steinway Street when a dispute outside the club escalated. Johnson was struck in the torso and leg during an exchange of gunfire and was taken to Mount Sinai Queens Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Two others were wounded: a 27-year-old woman shot in the knee, and Johnson’s then-boyfriend, DeShawn Parker, who suffered injuries to the buttocks and shoulder.

Reports say the shooting erupted after Johnson’s ex-boyfriend, 29-year-old Quasawn Williams, who had been denied entry earlier because he was armed, waited outside and argued with Parker. Williams fled in a white BMW and was later apprehended in New Jersey; he was returned to Queens and arraigned on attempted murder and weapon charges. Parker was also arrested and charged with weapons offenses after surveillance showed him exchanging gunfire with Williams.

Does anyone have information about what happened that night or knew Mye Johnson?
