A reward is being offered for information that leads to the identity of a suspect in the fatal shooting of a teen boy in Sylacauga.

The Talladega County Coroner’s Office on Thursday identified the victim as Dallas Johnson. He was 16 and attended high school in Coosa County.

Sylacauga police Chief Kelley Johnson said officers responded Tuesday to the Drew Court public housing complex on a report of shots fired.

When they arrived on the scene, they found the young victim in the roadway. He had suffered gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead on the scene.

Investigators say the slaying did not occur on school property, however, the shooting did occur after school had been dismissed and school buses were in the area of the fatal shooting.

School officials were notified by police for safety precautions, and as a result, all school-related afternoon activities were suspended at the time of the incident.

Additional details surrounding the deadly shooting have not been released.

Central Alabama Crime Stoppers is offering a $1,000 cash reward for information that leads to the identification of the suspect.

Anyone with information asked to call Crime Stoppers at 334-215-STOP (7867) or 1-833-AL1-STOP. Tips can also be made via the P3-tips app.
