Asia Monique Johnson, 25, was found unresponsive Sept. 30, 2022, in the 7100 block of First Avenue North. Her death was initially believed to be unclassified, but an autopsy later showed she sustained a fatal wound from a pellet gun.

Officers responded at 7:46 p.m. that Friday to a 911 call reported an unresponsive woman. East Precinct officers arrived to find the wounded Johnson, and Birmingham Fire and Rescue Service attempted CPR but to no avail.

Johnson was pronounced dead on the scene at 8:19 p.m.
