Pass Christian police seek Demetrius Johnson for felony malicious mischief

Demetrius Johnson is wanted by the Pass Christian Police Department on a charge of felony malicious mischief, Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers said in a Facebook post on Feb. 2, 2025. Authorities say the incident caused thousands of dollars in damage to a homeowner’s property.

Crime Stoppers said a tip to its program identified the man pictured in the post as Demetrius Johnson, and the Pass Christian Police Department confirmed the information after an investigation. The Facebook post said the first tip leading to an arrest will receive a reward, adding, “let’s make it 2 for 2.”

Police say Johnson is from the Pass Christian area and also frequents Gulfport on Mississippi’s Gulf Coast. Crime Stoppers encouraged him to turn himself in and asked anyone with information to submit tips via the P3 Tips app or by calling TIPS.

Mississippi Coast Crime Stoppers is a community tip program that works with local law enforcement to collect information and offer rewards for leads that result in arrests. All persons are presumed innocent until proven guilty. This is a developing story and will be updated as more details emerge.
