Authorities put out a public call Thursday to anyone who might be able to help identify the killer of a Lincoln Park man who was gunned down at his home more than 18 years ago.

Investigators determined that Johnson had left his residence about 15 minutes earlier, police said. After he returned, a witness heard a commotion, followed by several gunshots.

No suspects in the case have been identified.
