Kentaris Couch, 32, was found dead from a gunshot wound on August 4, 2025, in the 900 block of Charles Street in Montgomery, Alabama. Police opened a homicide investigation after discovering his body in the early Monday morning hours.

For weeks the circumstances were unclear and no suspects were publicly named. Investigators later identified 39-year-old Kinyatta Johnson as the person accused of shooting Couch. After a period at large, Johnson was taken into custody by the Montgomery Police Department and charged in connection with Couch’s death. Authorities had not released a motive at the time of the arrest, and the case is pending further legal proceedings.

If anyone has information about Couch, the scene on Charles Street that morning, or Johnson’s whereabouts before the arrest, please come forward.
