Gilbert Lee Johnson, 44, was shot and killed on November 25, 2020, in San Diego’s Encanto neighborhood. He was found slumped over in a vehicle near Varney Drive and Leaf Terrace Court after multiple 911 calls reporting gunshots; police arrived about 7:45 p.m. and Johnson was taken to a hospital where he was later pronounced dead.

Investigators say Johnson was talking with an acquaintance when another vehicle pulled up. The driver exited and fired several rounds at Johnson, then fled in an older model white four-door BMW sedan with black mirrors and a moon/sunroof. The shooter was described as wearing all dark clothing. The San Diego Police Department’s Homicide Unit and San Diego County Crime Stoppers are seeking the public’s help; a $1,000 reward has been offered for information leading to an arrest.

Few public details are available about motive or the acquaintance who was with Johnson. Does anyone have information about the vehicle, the suspect, or saw activity near Varney Drive and Leaf Terrace Court that evening?
