A fatal confrontation inside a convenience store in Southeast Washington, D.C., ended the life of 27-year-old Malcolm Johnson. On July 21, 2021, Johnson was inside a store on the 2200 block of Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue when 26-year-old Rondez Tibbs approached him. The encounter escalated into an attempted robbery; both men were armed and exchanged gunfire during a struggle. Both were struck.

Johnson left the store, got into a vehicle, and was later found unresponsive in the 2400 block of Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue, Southeast. He showed no signs of life when emergency personnel arrived. Detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch identified Tibbs as the suspect; Tibbs was arrested the same day and charged with felony murder.

Does anyone have information about Johnson’s movements that morning or about witnesses who were in the store?
