Tommie Lamore Johnson III, a Black man whose age was not released, was fatally shot in broad daylight on the afternoon of May 14, 2024, in South Miami-Dade. At about 1:40 p.m. he was walking on a sidewalk near Southwest 220th Street and Southwest 115th Avenue when someone approached from behind and opened fire, striking him multiple times. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue transported Johnson for emergency treatment, but he died of his wounds.

Investigators located 16-year-old Marquies McBride, whose name was also reported as Marquie Mcbride, at his home on May 15 and brought him to the Miami-Dade Police Department’s Homicide Bureau. Much of the arrest report was redacted because he was initially handled as a juvenile. By early June McBride had been transferred to the adult system and charged with one count of second-degree murder; jail records show he was held without bond. He also faced an unrelated grand-theft-of-a-vehicle charge from an earlier incident involving a reported stolen 2021 Honda CR-V.

Police have not released a motive, and the public documents do not say whether Johnson and McBride knew each other or what led up to the shooting. Are there witnesses or neighbors who saw anything around Southwest 220th Street and Southwest 115th Avenue that afternoon?
