Anthony McCardell Johnson, a 30-year-old African American man, was found fatally shot on July 4, 2017, inside an apartment at Chartwell Court Apartments on Ella Boulevard in Houston. His wife had been staying elsewhere the night before and returned about 10:30 a.m. to find him likely shot to death. Most of the couple’s belongings had already been moved out and nothing appeared to be missing from the apartment.

In the days before his death Johnson had reported to deputies that someone had intentionally struck him with a car; investigators noted there were no witnesses or corroborating details and described his behavior at that time as erratic.

Anyone who knew Johnson, was in the Chartwell Court area on July 4, 2017, or has information that could help investigators is asked to come forward.
