Cody Devontae Johnson, 27, was shot and killed outside his apartment in southeast Memphis on June 3, 2025. Police were called about 10:41 p.m. to the 6800 block of Birch Lake Drive and found Johnson lying outside his front door with multiple gunshot wounds; he died at the hospital.

Surveillance footage from the night shows two people in ski masks and dark hoodies with matching pants approach Johnson and open fire. The pair fled on foot, disappearing behind the apartment complex. In the days after the killing the Memphis Police Department released portions of that video and asked the public for help identifying the suspects.

No arrests have been announced and the motive has not been released. If anyone has information about the shooting or the identities of the two people seen in the footage, contact Crime Stoppers.
