Martice Johnson was 19 when he was shot and killed on June 28, 2015, in Detroit during what prosecutors say was a staged marijuana sale meant to rob him. According to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office, two teenagers arranged to buy marijuana from Johnson at a west-side house; 18-year-old Arkeene Broaden drove 16-year-old Cody Clark and Johnson to the 18100 block of Heyden while Broaden stayed in the car. Clark allegedly drew a handgun inside the home, pointed it at Johnson, and shot him when Johnson tried to run. A 25-year-old man in the house witnessed the shooting and exchanged gunfire with Clark as Clark fled on foot; Broaden then allegedly fired from the car at the witness as he drove away. Police pronounced Johnson dead at the scene.

Both Clark and Broaden were arrested and arraigned on first-degree murder, felony murder, conspiracy to commit armed robbery, and felony firearm; Clark was charged as an adult. A probable cause hearing was set for July 23, 2015, with a preliminary examination scheduled for July 30, 2015.
