In the early hours of Sunday, March 16, 2025, 41-year-old Tony Johnson, a Black man who lived in Hyannis, Massachusetts, was shot and killed in a parking lot on North Street near Washington Street. Police say they were called for a report of a gunshot about 1:00 a.m. and found Johnson with a single gunshot wound to the head. Bystanders and officers performed CPR and used a defibrillator before paramedics transported him to Cape Cod Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at about 1:38 a.m.

Witnesses reported hearing one gunshot and seeing a dark-colored pickup truck speed away. Officers later located a similar truck in Yarmouth; inside was 36-year-old Alex Greene of West Yarmouth. Greene was taken into custody after his wife, who had called 911, directed officers to a firearm placed near the vehicle. Investigators say the shooting followed a brief confrontation that began when Johnson was reportedly urinating near a car and inadvertently exposed himself to Greene’s wife, prompting Greene to fire the fatal shot.

No additional context about motive or wider connections has been provided; the case is described by the prosecutor as an isolated incident. Did anyone in Hyannis that night see the truck or the confrontation and have details to share?
