Robert Leonard Patterson, 25, was fatally shot on February 21, 2018, inside a room at the Best Western Plus hotel in San Antonio, Texas. He was with his girlfriend when two people, a man and a woman, entered the room; Patterson was killed by a single gunshot and his girlfriend was critically injured as the suspects demanded her car keys.

Police say the suspects, identified as 20-year-old Taariq Mike and 17-year-old Blandine Yvonne Idumbo, had gone to the room initially to sell meth. Investigators describe the incident as an attempted aggravated robbery that escalated to homicide. Authorities recovered that the pair brought a semi-automatic handgun and that Mike later identified Idumbo after seeing her photo on Facebook; Mike has claimed Idumbo fired the shot. The victim’s family called the motive materialistic, saying Patterson was killed over a car.

Does anyone have information about Patterson’s case or remember seeing activity around the Best Western Plus on February 21, 2018?
