La’Darion Johnson speeds away from police in Dodge Charger at 70 mph in 35 mph zone during assault investigation

22-year-old La’Darion Johnson was speeding through Crowe Drive in a black Dodge Charger on July 30th. While officers were investigating an aggravated assault case, Johnson, who was driving the Charger, was alleged to be involved. When officers attempted to make contact with Johnson, he sped away. MCPD’s air unit followed Johnson as he circled the area at a high speed. Johnson was observed going 70 mph in a 35 mph zone and failing to stop at stop signs. When officers came into contact with Johnson, he was at the initial residence where the aggravated assault case occurred. While Johnson was there, it was reported that he had become aggressive when the victim accused him of having “Pulled a pistol” on him. Officers cited him for the violation that day. Johnson was later booked on the citation of reckless driving on August 23rd.
