William Burgess II, 28, of Riviera Beach, Florida, was shot to death on February 23, 2018. He was found in the driver’s seat of a black Toyota Camry in the 2700 block of West 28th Street. The shooting occurred amid a series of violent events that day that left three other men injured.

Police reports say Burgess had been involved in a street-level narcotics sale shortly before the killing. Surveillance footage shows a black Nissan Maxima pulling up, the driver and two passengers exiting and entering a nearby garage, then the driver leaving and returning alone. The Nissan then pulled alongside Burgess’s car and the driver fired through the passenger window, fatally wounding him. Investigators say the same Nissan and driver were tied to an earlier shooting that day in which a man was driven to St. Mary’s Medical Center with a gunshot wound to the stomach.

Burgess had been released from prison in July 2017 after serving time for convictions from 2013. The shooter remained at large and police continued to seek information. If anyone knew William, the Nissan involved, or saw activity in the National Village area that day, please come forward with what was seen.
