Benjamin Taylor Johnson was 31 when he was shot and killed in Portland, Oregon on March 30, 2020. The shooting occurred at about 3 p.m. in a parking lot on the 3300 block of Southeast 82nd Avenue. He was found at the scene and pronounced dead; the Oregon State Medical Examiner’s Office ruled the cause of death a homicide from a gunshot wound.

Friends and family held a vigil in the days after his death. On April 2, 2020, the Portland Police Bureau announced an arrest: 22-year-old Joseph David Schneider was taken into custody and charged with Murder in the First Degree and Robbery in the First Degree in connection with the killing. The community continued to mourn Johnson’s loss.

Did anyone in the Portland area see or hear anything in that parking lot around 3 p.m. on March 30, 2020 that could help the investigation?
