Felony Suspect Arrested After Alabama Manhunt
June 13, 2016
A man wanted on an outstanding felony warrant and a person of interest in a murder was arrested after a manhunt late Sunday afternoon near Flomaton.
Johnny Jermaine Johnson, 38, was taken into custody by the Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office on escape charges from community corrections, according to Escambia County (AL) Chief Deputy Mike Lambert. He was apprehended on Fannie Church Road, near Highway 31, just east of Flomaton, after a three hour multi-agency manhunt.
Law enforcement officers from Alabama and Florida, along with K-9 teams from the Century Correctional Institution, the Santa Rosa Correctional Institution and Holman Prison, tracked Johnson in an area between Highway 31 and Junction Road for about three hours.
Johnson was reportedly also a person of interest in an apparent murder Sunday morning in Brewton. Someone reportedly dropped a woman off that was beaten to death outside the D.W. McMillan Hospital Emergency Room Sunday morning. As of early Monday morning, the Brewton Police Department had not released any further information on the apparent murder.

It’s a shame that it took her death for this predator to be locked away! He is a disgrace to society. In a perfect world he would have been shot on sight but karma will catch up with him. He deserves the same treatment he gave her. Rip M.C.
