DailyKenn.com — Michael DeHaan, 33, was fatally shot in Kansas City, MO.
Lorenzo C. Johnson, 31, was arrested.
Johnson was captured on security footage committing the crime at a Kansas City gas station.
The surveillance footage showed that just after 8:45 p.m. on Wednesday, August 21, Deehan arrived at the BP gas station in his red Nissan Versa and parked at the pump.
A gold Lincoln Town Car, which had been involved in multiple armed robberies earlier that evening, also entered the parking lot. Johnson was allegedly inside the vehicle during those robberies.
The footage captured Johnson exiting the Town Car and engaging in a physical altercation with Deehan before entering the victim’s car. Deehan attempted to hit Johnson, but Johnson exited the vehicle again. This time, as Deehan backed away, Johnson pointed a firearm and shot him in the head.
Before leaving the scene in Deehan’s vehicle, Johnson was seen on the footage backing over Deehan’s body and speeding away. The stolen vehicle was later spotted parked approximately nine blocks from the gas station.
Officers pursued Johnson, who eventually lost control of the vehicle and crashed. A white female occupant fled on foot while Johnson reached for his firearm. A marked patrol vehicle then pushed the Nissan to ensure Johnson’s safe arrest.
However, the patrol vehicle was not properly secured in park, causing it to hit the Nissan again, deploying the airbags. This allowed Johnson to regain control of the stolen vehicle, drive off the curb, and head north. He led police on a chase across the city before the vehicle became immobilized on a median about a mile from where he was first seen.
Johnson fled on foot, with officers continuing to pursue him in their patrol vehicles. He was finally arrested just after 11 p.m.
