Original Story

Authorities responded to a report of shots fired near an AutoZone store at the intersection of Clinton and Cedar avenues on Wednesday afternoon. The call came in around 3:40 p.m., but when deputies arrived, they found no gunshot victims at the scene.

According to authorities, the incident stemmed from a disturbance involving a large group of students from nearby McLane High School. During the altercation, a gun was drawn, and several shots were fired, causing the crowd to scatter. Bullets hit a parked vehicle and a building, but no injuries were reported.

Witnesses at the scene provided deputies with descriptions of the individuals involved, including the suspected gunman. Approximately 30 minutes after the shooting, deputies detained a person matching the gunman’s description. Investigators are continuing to follow leads and search the area for others who may have been involved.

This remains an ongoing investigation.

The Fresno County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information, video, or photos related to the incident to contact them at 559-600-3111.
