On Friday, around 7:30 p.m., OKCPD were called to the Fred Factory Garden Apartments, also known as the Dunjee Apartments, an Oklahoma City Housing Authority property, near NE 36th & Hiwassee. Although the apartment complex is within Spencer city limits, it is OKCPD’s jurisdiction.
“It appears there was some type of altercation going on, in that apartment complex there in the parking lot,” said Sgt. Quirk.
“When they arrived they found three subjects at the apartment complex that had been shot,” said Lt. Jeff Cooper, on scene the night of the murder.
At first, police thought all three people shot were victims. They were found at two crime scenes.
The first was in the parking lot, where a man and 49-year-old Sherratt Johnson were found. While one was injured, Johnson didn’t make it.
The second crime scene was outside the apartment complex.

“One of the victims was on this side of the street,” said Lt. Cooper.
That alleged victim was Devontia Robinson. However, police made a discovery after talking to witnesses.
“This turns out to be the shooter,” said Quirk.
According to online court records, Robinson, 36, has been in and out of prison. Currently, he is on probation.

Those at the apartment complex, who did not want to speak on camera, said several people saw what happened.
Others, like Kashia Hutson, only saw the aftermath.
“I came outside, seen someone laying on the ground. They said he was dead. They started putting yellow tape up,” said Hutson. “That’s my cousin’s brother.”
Hutson said Johnson, the man who was killed, was well loved by the community.
“He was a people-pleaser I believe, cause he always had them around him,” said Hutson. “He was the group leader.”
Now, Robinson is in the Oklahoma County Detention Center facing complaints of First-Degree Murder and Shooting With Intent to Kill. He is also facing complaints for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
