Orlando Martinez, 54, a real estate broker from Westville, New Jersey, was found with multiple gunshot wounds inside his gold-colored Honda Accord on the 4500 block of Oakmont Street in Philadelphia’s Holmesburg neighborhood on the morning of October 31, 2018. A passerby alerted authorities; police arrived about 11:04 a.m., broke a window to reach the locked car, and found Martinez barely alive with a gunshot to the head. He received CPR and was taken to Aria Torresdale Hospital but was pronounced dead shortly after arrival at 11:40 a.m.

Martinez had been scheduled to show a house in the same area the day before and did not return home, prompting his wife to report him missing that Tuesday night. Friends described him as friendly, spiritual, and helpful. Investigators said the motive did not appear to be robbery and believe Martinez likely knew his assailant; they suggested the killer may have been inside the car when the shooting occurred. No arrests had been announced as of late 2018.

Did anyone in the Holmesburg area see Martinez or his gold Honda Accord around October 30–31, 2018, or notice suspicious activity on Oakmont Street?
