Anthony Burks, 46, of Dallas was found fatally shot inside a motel room at the Super 7 Inn in the Red Bird neighborhood on December 10, 2019. He was taken to a local hospital but pronounced dead on arrival; the shooting occurred shortly after 10 p.m.

Police say Burks was robbed by two suspects who fled the scene. Detectives have been reviewing surveillance footage and are asking the public for help; a reward of up to $5,000 was offered for information leading to an arrest and indictment. Detective Olegario Garcia is listed as the lead investigator and anyone with information was asked to contact him or Crime Stoppers. No arrests have been made and the investigation remains open.

The case attracted attention amid an already high number of homicides in Dallas that year and calls from city leadership for a plan to reduce violent crime. Does anyone have information about Burks, the Super 7 Inn, or the events that night that could help investigators?
