Anthony Burks, a 46-year-old man from Dallas, Texas, was tragically found fatally shot inside a motel room at the Super 7 Inn in the Red Bird neighborhood on December 10, 2019. He was taken to a local hospital but was pronounced dead upon arrival. The incident occurred shortly after 10 p.m., and police believe that Burks was robbed by two suspects who fled the scene.
These suspects remain at large, and the investigation is ongoing.
The police have been reviewing surveillance footage in an attempt to identify the suspects. They have also asked for the public's help, offering a reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest and indictment. Detective Olegario Garcia is the lead investigator on the case, and anyone with information is encouraged to contact him or Crime Stoppers.
The case has drawn significant attention due to the high number of murders in Dallas that year, which had already reached nearly 200 by the time of Burks' death. The mayor called on the police chief to develop a detailed plan to reduce violent crime in the city.
Despite the ongoing investigation, no arrests have been made in connection with Anthony Burks' death. The suspects are still being sought, and the case remains open.
