Milagros T. Johnson was a New York City Police Officer who was killed on the early morning of Wednesday, November 11, 1992, at about 2:30 am. Off duty and driving her car, she was approached by two men who intended to rob her. When the assailants discovered she was an officer, one of them shot her three times in the head while she remained inside the vehicle.

Her body was abandoned in a weeded vacant lot at Craft Avenue and Huxley Street in Queens near John F. Kennedy International Airport; some reports also place the body alongside the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn. Johnson was four days short of her 26th birthday and had served with the department for about two and a half years. She was survived by her mother and sister; her father had been a longtime NYPD detective who rose to Assistant Police Commissioner.

Two suspects were arrested and charged in connection with the killing; the shooter was convicted of second-degree murder and received a life sentence, and the other man was also convicted. If anyone knew Officer Johnson, her movements that night, or has information about the case, please share what is known.
