Jordan Benjamin Burleson, 24, was fatally shot in the early morning hours of July 31, 2024, outside a short-term rental on the 4600 block of Hawthorn Woods on San Antonio’s Northwest Side. The rental, reportedly an unregistered Airbnb hosting 30 to 40 people, was the site of a house party when witnesses say Burleson stepped outside — possibly to get food — and a silver Dodge Charger pulled up. An occupant in the passenger seat allegedly fired multiple rounds from a rifle, striking Burleson; witnesses reported hearing 10 to 15 shots before the vehicle fled. Partygoers attempted first aid, but Burleson was pronounced dead at the scene.

A standoff followed as attendees barricaded inside the rental for over four hours; everyone eventually exited and was questioned, and investigators determined none of the occupants fired the shots. Police indicated the attack appeared targeted and connected the incident to gang activity, noting the rental had been leased by individuals with gang affiliations. No arrests have been announced. Crime Stoppers is offering up to a $5,000 reward for tips leading to an arrest; call 210-224-STOP with information.

Does anyone have information about that night or recall seeing a silver Dodge Charger in the area around 2:50 a.m.?
