(Fruitport Township, MI) – A man is scheduled to be sentenced Thursday following an incident at a Meijer in Fruitport Township last fall. In September of 2024, 39-year-old Alexae Johnson released what police called a noxious gas in the store, smelling strongly of chlorine, before going on to steal thousands-of-dollars worth of merchandise.

The incident left four people hospitalized. Johnson has since pled guilty to placing an explosive device with intent to alarm, two charges of retail fraud, and being a habitual offender for an incident.
