Alex Burgos, 22, was shot and killed just after midnight on July 14, 2008, on Ditmus Court in Boston’s South End. Police responding to reports of gunfire found Burgos with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to Boston Medical Center and pronounced dead. The Boston Police Department identified him as the victim the next day.

The shooting was classified as a homicide, but the circumstances surrounding the attack were unclear in the immediate aftermath and no arrests were announced. The investigation later went cold, and the killing remains one of Boston’s unsolved homicides, leaving family and community members without answers.

If anyone knew Alex, saw activity on Ditmus Court that night, or has information about this case, please come forward to assist ongoing efforts to resolve it.
