On the evening of January 19, 2025, a gathering at a residence on West Laguna Street in Tucson, Arizona, ended in a deadly shooting. Fifty-seven-year-old David Debois Johnson was at the house when a confrontation broke out and gunfire erupted shortly after 10:00 p.m. When Tucson Police Department officers arrived they found Mr. Johnson and 55-year-old Clinton Eric Dale inside the residence; both had sustained fatal gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene. Homicide detectives took over the investigation.

Police say a number of people were at the gathering. Some witnesses were interviewed after officers obtained a search warrant for the home, but investigators believe several other potential witnesses fled before officers arrived. Authorities appealed to the public for anyone with information.

Investigators later located a suspect in Yuma, Arizona. On January 24, 2025, that suspect was shot and killed during a confrontation with U.S. Marshals. The investigation into the Tucson shooting remains ongoing.

If anyone was at the West Laguna Street gathering or has information that could help, please contact the Tucson Police Department.
