Johnson was in a lime green Lamborghini traveling west toward Sunshine Boulevard on Southwest 27th Street about 5:30 a.m. Sunday when someone in a white sedan pulled up and opened fire. The vehicle sped away from the scene, said Miramar Police spokeswoman Janice McIntosh.
The Lamborghini driver drove a short distance before crashing. Police were summoned by “shotspotter” technology that alerts law enforcement when a gun is fired.
It was not clear whether Johnson, 21, was a passenger or the driver of the Lamborghini. She and the other two occupants, both men, were taken to Miramar Regional Hospital in critical condition. Johnson died later in the day.

No arrests have been made.
