In Ohio, the Columbus Division of Police released surveillance photos and video (see above) this week of two suspects caught on camera who can be seen walking away from a rented Tesla last month, where Jordan’s body was found inside the trunk by investigators.

Police say that Jordan, 44, was found in a Tesla Model 3 that was abandoned in a west Columbus neighborhood during the early morning hours of Saturday, Jan. 14. Jordan had previously been reported missing out of Howard County.

His body was found by detectives with the department’s Missing Persons Unit on Tuesday, Jan. 24. Investigators later determined that the vehicle was registered as a rental car.

Jordan’s death was reportedly ruled a death by homicide, and his ties to Ohio are unclear. The investigation is ongoing by members of the Columbus Division of Police.
