According to the NYPD, officers from the 44th Precinct went to Small’s apartment at 979 Summit Avenue for a wellness check. Tenants in the building called 911 after hearing what they thought were gunshots. 


At the Bronx the apartment, officers found a human head in the freezer and a torso in a blue storage bin. According to the NY Post, a building super claimed he saw Johnson walk into the building with a blue storage tub around 2 am but never brought it back out. 


Today, police walked Johnson out of the 44th Precinct station house in handcuffs and wearing a white forensics jumpsuit.
