According to police, two groups of men had argued in the area of 6100 South Peoria Tuesday night. On Wednesday afternoon, police say, the two groups met up in the apartment complex. Police believe Johnson pulled out a gun and fired at three people.

"We consider Johnson to be a danger to the community as he had total disregard for innocent bystanders during this shooting," TPD said in the wanted poster it released about Johnson.

Police ask anyone with information about Johnson to call Crime Stoppers at 918-596-2677, the homicide tip line at 918-798-8477, or send an email to homicide@cityoftulsa.org.
