Mackelle Lemon Burnett, 41, was shot and killed during a home invasion at the Summit West Apartments in Temple Terrace on December 28, 2016. Police received a 911 call about a shooting and burglary in progress around 5:49 p.m. Officers found Burnett with at least one gunshot wound; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Two assailants forced their way into Burnett’s apartment and fled in a white Kia. One suspect, Parish Devante Jordan, 24, was found at St. Joseph’s Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. The second suspect, described as a light-skinned Black male with a thin build and tattoos on both arms, remains at large. Authorities have asked anyone with information to come forward.

Burnett’s family, through the Murray Law Firm, has raised questions about security at the Summit West Apartments and is exploring wrongful-death claims against the property owner or management, citing possible failures in patrols, cameras, and other deterrents. Does anyone have information about the white Kia, the second suspect, or security conditions at Summit West Apartments on that date?
