Johnson was charged with armed robbery and possession of a firearm in commission of a crime after he was shot in a struggle with Michael Perryman, 28, at Perryman’s apartment.
He was transported to the Chatham County Detention Center after spending a night at Memorial University Medical Center where he was treated for the wound. Kassandra Perryman was charged with armed robbery.

Baker was charged with reckless conduct after Donnie Reed Cantrell, 45, was shot in the foot just before 10 p.m. The two next-door neighbors had argued several times during the day before Cantrell went to Baker’s residence for a third time to continue the discussion. Baker produced a weapon and fired it twice into the ground and struck Cantrell’s foot.
