Overview
- Federal marshals say the U.S. Marshals Lone Star Fugitive Task Force located 22-year-old Shakayla Johnson near La Cantera Parkway in San Antonio and arrested her before she was booked into the Bexar County jail and transferred to Marion County.
- Johnson now faces a murder charge tied to the Nov. 17, 2024 death of 20-year-old Tyshaun Williams after investigators say they uncovered additional evidence that led to an arrest warrant.
- Indianapolis police previously identified Johnson as a suspect after a witness named her and the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office interviewed and released her during the original probe.
- Officials have not disclosed how long Johnson lived in San Antonio and further court dates in Marion County have not been announced.
- The case highlights coordinated work between local detectives and a federal fugitive task force and could prompt renewed review of the nearly two-year-old investigation as prosecutors prepare next steps.
