Donnell Johnson, 49, was shot dead on August 20, 2024, at about 5 p.m. inside the One Stop Auto and Collision shop at 2207 Eastex Freeway in Houston. Houston police found Johnson unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Surveillance video shows Johnson entering the garage, approaching mechanic Alton W. Fuller, and being shot when about ten feet away. After Johnson fell, the footage shows Fuller firing additional rounds and kicking him. Fuller, 51, returned to the scene shortly after, surrendered two firearms, was detained and later charged with murder in the 209th State District Court.

Investigators say the shooting grew out of an ongoing dispute between Johnson and Fuller over vehicle repairs. Phone logs show Johnson tried to contact Fuller several times that day, including a brief call shortly before the shooting; no threatening texts were documented. The video also indicates roughly a 23-minute delay before authorities were notified. Funeral services for Johnson were held September 7, 2024, at Compean Funeral Home, with burial at Houston Memorial Gardens Cemetery.

Does anyone have additional information about the dispute between Johnson and Fuller or saw activity at the shop that afternoon?
