Detroit’s West Side: A body found on the roof of a vacant dwelling today is reportedly a missing 20 year old Detroit man, Drevon Johnson.
Mr Johnson had been missing since December 16th 2018.
Detroit Police were called to the vacant dwelling in the 15700 block of Lesure early in the afternoon of January 17, 2019. Mr Johnson’s family made the discovery while searching vacant houses in the neighborhood.
Mr Johnson lived on the same street his body was found on and amazingly, was found in the last place he was seen. A friend of Johnson told his family members she heard shots coming from the house Mr Johnson was in, but never investigated.
Unable to reach or remove Mr Johnson’s body, the Detroit Police Department asked the Detroit Fire Department to assist in its recovery.
Detroit Fire’s 4th Battalion Chief 4, Ladder Truck 25 and Squad 1 were dispatched and Ladder 25 used its aerial platform to remove the young man’s body from the roof.
A cause of death has not been determined and the Detroit Police are investigating.
Detroit: January 16/17 2019 – Shots rang out in several areas of Detroit Wednesday evening and early Thursday morning. 3 shootings were recorded, 2 on Detroit’s west side and 1 in the east. Thankfully, it ‘appears’ that all three were non-fatal.
Detroit’s West Side: DPD Scouts responded to Pembroke & Faust last night on reports of a shooting. Officer’s found a victim with a GSW and Detroit EMS conveyed the victim to a local hospital.
Details were hard to come by on this one, but Detroit PD’s evidence techs were dispatched to the scene for a non-fatal shooting.
Detroit’s West Side: The second shooting took place in the area of Coyle & Puritan.
The victim was privately conveyed to Providence Hospital in Southfield. There, the victim told investigating officers that the shooting took place in the area of Coyle & Puritan.
The third shooting took place in the 5th Precinct, Detroit’s east side. A 911 caller stated that his son had been shot in the 4500 block of Harding. Arriving officer’s found the victim with a GSW and reported a “good shooting” to dispatch.
‘Good Shooting” is just a term DPD uses to identify a confirmed shooting, that’s all it is, no shooting is a good shooting.
DEMS Medic 13 conveyed the victim to Detroit Receiving Hospital in an unknown condition.
And so it goes…
