Michael Rackard, 34, of Clearwater, Florida, died on February 2, 2017, from gunshot wounds he suffered on January 28, 2017. The shooting occurred inside the apartment he shared with his roommate, La’Mel Johnson, at 124 N. Jefferson Ave. in Clearwater. Rackard was taken to Bayfront Health St. Petersburg and died a few days later.

Clearwater police identified 29-year-old La’Mel Johnson as the primary suspect. Johnson fled the scene after the shooting and a manhunt followed; police obtained an attempted second-degree murder warrant initially and upgraded the charge to first-degree murder after Rackard’s death. Johnson was captured on February 6, 2017, without incident and charged with first-degree murder.

Does anyone have information about Rackard, the apartment at 124 N. Jefferson Ave., or events around late January 2017 that could help clarify what happened?
