Kashawn Johnson, an 18-year-old African American male, was shot on Beech Crest Place in Charlotte, North Carolina, around 6:30 p.m. on May 14, 2022. He was taken to Atrium Main Hospital with life-threatening injuries and died the next day. His death was one of five homicides under investigation by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department at that time.

Family and friends remembered Kashawn as energetic, optimistic, caring, and full of life. His mother, Tianna Nelson, described him as the light to everyone and has been actively seeking justice, organizing peaceful protests and urging the district attorney to pursue accountability. Following the shooting, two suspects were arrested: a 15-year-old charged on May 23, 2022 with murder, robbery with a dangerous weapon, and conspiracy to commit robbery; and 20-year-old Desmond Dailey arrested on August 12, 2022 and charged with murder, robbery with a dangerous weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery, and possession of a firearm by a felon.

Does anyone have information about Kashawn, his last known movements, or the events on Beech Crest Place that evening?
