Video Released Of Man Wanted For Questioning In Connection With Body Found In Car

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Police have released surveillance video of a man wanted for questioning in connection with a body found inside a car in the Bronx.

The man can be seen leaving the area where the black BMW was found, 15 miles from Johson's Fort Lee home.

The car belonged to 24-year-old Jordan Johnson. His body was discovered in the trunk on Thursday.

Chopper 2 was over the scene at East 211th Street and Tryon Avenue in the Norwood section of the borough.

Johnson lived with his girlfriend, Megan Faulkner, in Fort Lee, New Jersey. On Wednesday, Faulkner reported him kidnapped. She also said someone had broken into their apartment and stolen a large amount of cash and jewelry.

Inside the apartment building, CBS2's Dave Carlin was told the Faulkner had not returned since the burglary. According to neighbors, the couple moved in this past October and kept a low profile.

The New York City Medical Examiner's office was to determine the cause of Johnson's death.

Police are said to be checking the victim's cell phone records, specifically text messages sent after his kidnapping.
