NYPD announces arrest of suspect in connection with mother's murder in Manhattan

The NYPD has announced the arrest of a suspect in connection with the horrifying shooting of 20-year-old Azsia Johnson on Manhattan’s Upper East Side earlier this week.

Isaac Argro, 22, was arrested Friday evening and has been charged with murder and criminal possession of a weapon in connection to Johnson’s shooting, which shocked the city.

Johnson was shot in the back of the head and killed as she pushed her 3-month-old baby in a stroller.

Johnson’s mother had previously alleged that her daughter’s ex-boyfriend was abusive and was stalking her after having the child.

Johnson, who was 20 at the time of her death, had been living in a domestic violence shelter on the Upper East Side when she was gunned down on Wednesday night at Lexington Avenue and 95th Street.

Lisa Desort said her daughter feared for her own safety and made multiple domestic violence complaints to police.

“I kept telling them, he’s threatening my daughter’s life and they didn’t believe me and now my daughter is dead,” said Desort.

The baby was not injured in the shooting.

The NYPD was reportedly searching for the baby’s father for questioning.

“This community is traumatized,” said Mayor Eric Adams at a vigil for Johnson.

“Our city is traumatized. This is what the fight is about — the guns on our streets. This is what we’ve been talking about over and over again. These are real stories real people who are losing their lives.”
