PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — When police arrived at the scene of a single car crash at 89th and Burnside on June 11, 2010, they found a man with life-threatening injuries. The car hit a power pole and stopped in the yard of a house in that area.

David Cosmo Jenkins was rushed to a hospital for treatment, though he later died from his injuries. But just before he crashed, the 32-year-old was shot.

An autopsy concluded Jenkins died from the gunshot wound.

Investigators pieced together information and learned he was headed west on Burnside near 89th when he was shot. There is no indication this was gang-related, police said.

No one has ever been connected with this killing. Now, Crime Stoppers is offering a $2500 reward for information that leads to an arrest.
