Jordan Idahosa, 21, was shot and killed on March 17, 2023, while visiting Miami Beach for Spring Break. The shooting occurred on Ocean Drive near 7th Street in the South Beach neighborhood; police responded to gunfire about 10:41 p.m. and found two men with gunshot wounds. Idahosa was taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital’s Ryder Trauma Unit and later pronounced dead. A second victim was treated at the scene and released.

Authorities described the incident as a targeted and isolated event. Police recovered four firearms at the scene and arrested Dontavious Leonard Polk, 24, of Fort Lauderdale. Polk had prior convictions including a 2017 carjacking with a deadly weapon and was released from prison in 2021. Friends and family remembered Idahosa as a scholar and active member of Valdosta State University’s Collegiate Men; his brother Sammy called him a special guy and a warrior in spirit.

Does anyone who was in South Beach that night or who knew Jordan have information that could shed light on what led to this shooting?
