Sergio James, 35, was fatally shot on the street at the intersection of Chaffie and Gillespie Streets in Aberdeen, Mississippi, on November 28, 2020. Neighbors reported a barrage of gunfire that night; one resident later found at least five bullet holes in a nearby home. James was struck and died at the scene.

Aberdeen police identified 20-year-old Amari Johnson as a person of interest and issued an alert describing him as armed and dangerous. The red Mercedes coupe he was seen driving was recovered. Johnson was arrested in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in early December 2020 and authorities said he would face a murder charge once extradited to Mississippi. He was reportedly released on bond and in May 2021 was arrested on a first-degree murder charge in an unrelated Tupelo shooting; news at that time noted he had been out on bond in the November 2020 killing of Sergio James. The final disposition of the murder charge in James’s death has not been publicly reported.

Did anyone in the Aberdeen area witness the shooting or know more about the red Mercedes seen that night?
