Stephon Johnson, a 26-year-old Black man, was shot and killed in the Ensley neighborhood of Birmingham on June 27, 2020. The shooting occurred at a residence on Avenue V after a verbal dispute earlier that evening escalated into gunfire. Officers from the Birmingham Police Department’s West Precinct were called at about 10:42 p.m. and found Johnson inside the home unresponsive with an apparent gunshot wound.

Johnson was transported to UAB Hospital but died of his injuries. The homicide unit opened an immediate investigation, canvassing the area and interviewing potential witnesses. Authorities said the shooting followed the earlier argument, but no suspect was arrested in the days after the killing and police asked the public for information.
