Robert Johnson, 41, was found dead just after dawn on Monday, November 7, 2022, at the Westside Creek apartment complex in the 4700 block of Sam Peck Road in west Little Rock. Officers responding to a 6:43 a.m. subject-down call discovered an adult Black male on the ground with spent shell casings nearby. Emergency responders pronounced him dead at the scene and the Pulaski County coroner removed the body to the Arkansas State Crime Lab.

Public memorials and family posts remembered Johnson as funny, smart, generous and devoted as a son, brother and uncle. Investigators treated the death as a homicide; crime-scene specialists documented casings, canvassed the complex and surrounding streets, and sought witnesses and video.

Did anyone in west Little Rock hear or see anything that morning near Sam Peck Road or the nearby intersection of West 36th Street and John Barrow Road?
