Police Seek Help Locating Man Wanted for Questioning in Robbery Investigation

Newark Public Safety Director Fritz G. Fragé seeks the public’s assistance in locating Dijuan Johnson, 27, wanted for questioning in connection with a robbery that occurred on Tuesday, May 14, 2024.

A man drove his vehicle to a business in the 300 block of Clinton Place to make a delivery. When the victim exited his vehicle and entered the business, three suspects broke into the vehicle, setting off its alarm. The suspects then began removing boxes from the victim’s vehicle. When the victim approached them, one suspect struck him with a closed fist, knocking him to the ground. The suspects then repeatedly kicked him before fleeing in a 2011 Kia Sorrento, which has since been recovered by Police. 

Detectives investigating this incident are seeking Johnson for questioning. He is described as 5’5” tall and 145 pounds. 

Director Fragé urges anyone with information about the whereabouts of Dijuan Johnson to call the Police Division’s 24-hour Crime Stopper tip line at 1-877-NWK-TIPS (1-877-695-8477).
