Police in Burlingame are searching for a killer who gunned a man down in the driveway of the Hyatt Regency at San Francisco International Airport on Sunday morning, officials said.

The assailant opened fire around 5:45 a.m., shooting an unnamed man in the driveway of the hotel at 1333 Bayshore Highway, Burlingame police Lt. Jay Kiely said.

Officers found the victim bleeding at the scene, in what investigators deemed a “targeted shooting.”

He was later pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators were working to determine a motive for the killing and said they believe the victim was visiting the hotel, Kiely said.

Police said that the killing did not appear random and that there was no immediate threat to the public.

No suspect was identified or arrested in the slaying.
