Marcell L. Johnson, 30, was shot and killed on August 29, 2022, in the Sheridan Park neighborhood of Chicago. He was standing on the sidewalk outside his apartment in the 4600 block of North Dover Street when two people approached and opened fire. Marcell was struck in the chest and later died at Illinois Masonic Medical Center.

He had just finished dinner with his wife, Jalanni Johnson, and their 1-year-old son and had stepped outside to smoke when the attack occurred. Nothing was taken from him, and the family has suggested the possibility of mistaken identity.

Marcell worked two jobs to support his family; his brother Marsharay Abbott and sister Misha Mcglory have urged anyone with information to come forward. If anyone knew Marcell or saw activity near North Dover Street on August 29, 2022, please share what you know with investigators.
