On the night of Friday, October 7, 2022, a burst of gunfire on a sidewalk in the 1100 block of Bell Road in Antioch, Tennessee, left 32-year-old Adrian Johnson Jr. dead. He was approached by a group of men at about 11:30 p.m.; after a brief encounter shots were fired and Johnson was struck multiple times, succumbing at the scene.

Metro Nashville Police homicide detectives described the attack as targeted rather than random and said they were pursuing strong leads. The motive remained under investigation. Authorities urged anyone with information to come forward, offering the possibility of anonymity and a cash reward for tips; no specific suspects or arrests have been publicly disclosed.

Does anyone who was in the Bell Road area that night or who knew Adrian have information that could help investigators?
