We're told Johnny initially used a 2x4 to attack the men ... and then used his bare hands.
Law enforcement sources say the men he fought with say Johnny showed "super-human strength" and was "phenomenally strong."
We're told Johnny tried to break into the house of one of the men ... and it took 3 people to hold him back.

According to our law enforcement sources, 28-year-old Lewis was found in a driveway Wednesday morning in the Los Feliz neighborhood -- and the elderly woman who owned the home was found dead inside ... the victim of a homicide. Investigators say they believe Lewis beat the woman to death.

Lewis was renting a room from the 81-year-old victim.
