Atlanta, Georgia — On June 16, 2023, around 1:55am, officers responded to a criminal trespass call at the location of 22 14th St. Upon arrival, officers canvassed the parking lot and located a vehicle with the window shot out, with a single shell casing round on the ground. Officers were provided a description of the suspect and continued canvassing the area until they located a male matching the description provided. Officers attempted to detain the suspect, identified as Kemeron Johns for questioning, giving loud verbal commands for him to drop the weapon and surrender.

Johns continued ignoring the officers’ commands and appeared to have discharged a round from his firearm in an unknown direction as officers attempted to engage him. Officers on scene strategized a tactical approach towards Johns with both lethal and less lethal use of force options to engage Johns. As officers closed the distance between themselves and Johns, they successfully deployed their city-issued tasers and rendered the suspect immobile. Officers then detained Johns and recovered a firearm from his person. Grady EMS arrived to evaluate the suspect before he was transported to Fulton County Jail.

Johns is back behind bars after being arrested, just nine days after being released from the Fulton County Jail. Johns’ criminal record shows that he was first arrested in Fulton County in 2011, then again in 2014, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022 and, most recently before Friday morning, June 7, 2023. Related to Friday’s incident, Johns was charged with criminal trespass for being on the resident level of Icon Midtown and property damage for shooting out the apartment building’s window. He is also charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, discharging a firearm under the influence of drugs, reckless conduct, obstruction, possession of a drug-related object and pointing a firearm at a person.

  1. "Officers immediately began de-escalation tactics". Yep, that was a perfect textbook example of de-escalation: "Hey! Put your hands up! Pull your hands out! Put your hands up! Pull your hands out! Hands! Hands Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands! Hands!" Couldn't have done it better myself.

  2. "Johns’ criminal record shows that he was first arrested in Fulton County in 2011, then again in 2014, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022 and, most recently before Friday morning, June 7, 2023"

  3. "This is outrageous"

    My man, you are lucky they didn't dome you when you fired that first round. They'd have been totally justified in any lethal force with you acting like you were.

  4. Not sure how these right-wingers got started talking about "holding judges accountable," but the near-constant repetition of people who don't understand how the criminal justice system works is really starting to wear thin.

  5. He'll be out in no time at all…
    This is why officers are dying, not keeping criminals locked up and cops too afraid to fire shots at a violent criminal that could have easily killed one of them!

  6. Having personally witnessed him discharging a firearm, the cop should have lit him up. Why do cops give these criminals opportunities to kill innocents?

  7. these diversity hires need to go back to stop being police officers or maybe learn that tazers dont work when ur so far away

  8. So you have a guy discharging a firearm in "an unknown direction" yet they don't immediately put him down. GG blue

  9. "Johns’ criminal record shows that he was first arrested in Fulton County in 2011, then again in 2014, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022 and, most recently before Friday morning, June 7, 2023." I feel like at a certain point there needs to be another option besides let the criminal back onto the street.

    One option is build/buy an island put high af walls around it and throw all the repeat criminals there if they can't get their crap together after so many arrests. Or maybe reopen insane asylums because clearly this dude plus many others out there are mentally f'd up and a danger to the community.
