Brandon Jerico Cornelius, a 25-year-old African American man from San Antonio, was fatally shot on June 23, 2018, outside the Burnhouse Rooftop Lounge on the city’s North Side. He and two companions were getting into their vehicle after leaving the lounge when two unidentified men with handguns approached. The assailants opened the front passenger door, where Cornelius was seated, and fired multiple shots; he was later pronounced dead at University Hospital.

Witnesses provided information to police but the gunmen initially remained at large and the San Antonio Police Department did not release a motive. On October 3, 2019, an arrest was announced: 21-year-old Jamarque Jamez Washington was charged with the murder after DNA from a car door handle and shell casings matched evidence from a separate Houston shooting. Washington was held in the Bexar County Jail with bail set at $125,000. Cornelius’s family said they would attend court hearings as they grieved.

Are there witnesses or additional details from that night who can help complete the timeline?
