Dion Dewon Nupea Johnson, 21, was shot and killed on Tuesday, April 1, 2014, while detailing a customer’s vehicle at the Untouchable Car Wash on Chef Menteur Highway in New Orleans. He worked at the car wash and was killed during an altercation with his first cousin, Tyrone Daniel, who was also present. Witnesses including another employee and a customer saw the dispute escalate; trial testimony reported that Daniel said Johnson had threatened him and approached him aggressively before the shooting.

Tyrone Tee Boy Daniel was identified as the suspect, arrested, and charged with second-degree murder. At trial the defense argued Daniel acted in self-defense, but the jury convicted him of second-degree murder for Johnson’s death. Does anyone have memories of Dion, the car wash, or information about the incident that could help paint a fuller picture?
