Jordan A. Johnson, 24, of Fort Lee, was reportedly kidnapped and found dead in New York City on Jan. 15, 2015, police said.Fort Lee Police Department NEW YORK CITY — A 24-year-old Fort Lee man whose girlfriend reported him kidnapped was found dead in the trunk of his BMW in the Bronx Thursday, authorities said.
New York City police officers discovered the body of Jordan Johnson at East 211th Street and Tryon Avenue, near Woodlawn Cemetery, around 2 p.m., according to an NYPD spokesman.
A police car’s automatic license plate reader alerted officers to Johnson’s parked BMW, which Fort Lee authorities had issued an alert for after he was reported missing, the spokesman said late Thursday.
Johnson was found unresponsive in the trunk and pronounced dead at the scene, according to NYPD and FDNY representatives. The city medical examiner’s office would determine a cause of death, police added.
The discovery came a day after Fort Lee police asked for information from the public to help find Johnson. His girlfriend, Megan Faulkner, told borough police she went to meet Johnson in Harlem, New York overnight Tuesday, but he never arrived.
“When Faulkner arrived at the location, her boyfriend was nowhere to be found,” Fort Lee police Chief Keith Bendul said Wednesday. “She tried to contact him numerous times and there was no reply.”
Faulkner found the couple’s luxury apartment ransacked, and reported a “large amount of jewelry” and an undisclosed sum of cash stolen, according to borough police. Johnson’s 2013 BMW 550 Gran Turismo was also missing.
Staff at the high-rise building have referred calls to authorities and would not give a message to Faulkner, who could not be reached for comment.
Fort Lee detectives along with the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office were involved in the investigation. Reached Thursday afternoon, a prosecutor’s office spokeswoman said she did not immediately have information about the case.
