It happened on March 28 in the area of Piedmont Avenue NE and Monroe Drive. Around 11:30 p.m. officers were alerted by security guards who reported a man carrying an ax in each hand. Responding officers were able to catch up with Johnson and search his possession. Police said they located those axes, but Johnson had fled the scene.

Officers eventually spotted Johnson riding a bicycle and chased after him. They were able to eventually take him into custody without further incident or any injuries.
