Campbell Village complex in the 1600 block of 10th Street at about 4:45 p.m. on Nov. 2, 2014.

Prosecutor Keydon Levy said Booker and Johnson were friends and Johnson had been staying at Booker's apartment for a few days but Booker got mad at Johnson because he thought Johnson was letting too many people into the apartment.
