Quintez Johnson, a 31-year-old Black man, was found shot to death in his apartment in the 1300 block of W. 5th Avenue in Gary, Indiana, on November 15, 2021. Investigators reported two gunshot wounds to the head and no signs of a struggle at the scene. A trail of marijuana leading up the stairs to his unit and later disclosure that Johnson had recently begun selling marijuana to supplement his income are noted in the investigation.

Security camera footage from the building showed a man arriving at Johnson’s apartment and leaving shortly after the estimated time of the shooting, carrying a handgun and a bag of marijuana. Facial recognition identified the man as 32-year-old Tyrone Reno, who was later apprehended. A Lake County jury convicted Reno of murder and a firearm enhancement and he was sentenced to a total of 70 years in prison.

If anyone knew Johnson, his movements that week, or saw the person on the building footage, please share what you know.
