Mount Vernon Police District- Isaiah Johnson, 27, of Alexandria was arrested yesterday for a shooting that occurred on June 26 in Groveton. Officers were called at 11:58 a.m. to the 3300 block of Lockheed Boulevard for a man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds to the upper body. Officers immediately rendered aid until Fire and Rescue personnel arrived. The man was transported to a hospital for injuries that were not considered life threatening.

Detectives determined two victims arrived at an apartment when they were confronted by Johnson and a second man who displayed handguns and shot at both victims. Only one of the victims was struck by the gunfire. During the investigation, detectives canvassed the area for witnesses and additional evidence. Johnson was identified by a community member and warrants were obtained for two counts of aggravated malicious wounding, two counts of robbery and the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. Detectives continue to work on identifying the second gunman.

Tuesday, detectives from our Fugitive Track and Apprehension Unit were tracking Johnson in his vehicle as he entered Fairfax County. Johnson was arrested by our Street Crimes Unit. During the arrest, a loaded 9mm “ghost” gun with an extended magazine was recovered. Johnson was taken to the Adult Detention Center where the warrants were served. In addition to the charges stemming from the June 26th shooting, Johnson was also charged following the traffic stop with possession of schedule I/II drug, possession of schedule I/II drug with firearm on person, possession of firearm by non-violent felon, felon in possession of ammunition, and a concealed carry permit violation. Johnson was held on no bond.
