At the time of his arrest, Johnson asserted to officers that he was operating on the highest orders. According to the Florida man, “he was told by the president” to warn “the government there was US aliens fighting with Chinese dragons.”

Johnson also claimed that the president instructed him to steal the truck he drove to Patrick, an F-150 he stole days prior. According to police, Johnson did not know who the owner of the truck was and was charged with grand theft of a motor vehicle.

This is the Space Force’s second incident in recent months following a fatal shooting outside of the New Boston Space Force Station in mid May.
