Published 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
A 13-year-old was critically injured in a stabbing incident in the central Fresno area near Fresno Street and Shields Avenue earlier this past week, with reports from ABC30 stating police have not made any arrests and the case remains under active investigation as of Sunday. On Friday in the southwest Fresno region, a man died following a shooting; according to local coverage, officers responded to reports of gunfire, found the victim at the scene, and declared him deceased at a nearby hospital. Authorities confirmed the incident is under investigation, no suspect description has been released, and police are seeking community assistance. In separate developments, Fresno Police responded to several property crime incidents in the Tower District including a string of alleged burglaries reported midweek—multiple businesses along Olive Avenue experienced forced entries after hours, and detectives are reviewing surveillance footage. There have been no arrests in these cases and police encourage anyone with information to come forward.
Also reported was a motor vehicle theft incident in the Sunnyside neighborhood, where a vehicle was stolen from a public lot. The car is described as a silver 2018 Honda Accord, and investigators are following leads with the case status listed as under investigation. In southeast Fresno, a robbery was reported near Kings Canyon Road, where an individual alleged they were approached by two suspects who brandished what appeared to be a firearm and fled with personal property. No injuries reported, and the investigation is ongoing. Police are requesting assistance identifying two male suspects; both were described as late teens or early twenties, medium build, both seen wearing dark hooded sweatshirts and face coverings at the time of the incident.
Elsewhere, officers investigated a case of vandalism near Shaw Avenue and Blackstone Avenue, where multiple vehicles at a commercial lot were reportedly damaged overnight. No arrests have been made and this case remains open. Fresno law enforcement also responded to community calls about suspicious activities around polling sites as the area hosted increased federal monitoring during election week; however, officials confirmed no criminal incidents or voter intimidation were substantiated at these locations.
This week’s incidents show ongoing challenges with violent crimes in central and southwest Fresno, as well as continued concerns about property crimes in busy commercial corridors such as the Tower District and along major avenues like Shaw and Kings Canyon. Law enforcement continues to request help from the public, especially in cases involving robbery suspects and in reviewing surveillance video for recent burglary investigations.
Anyone with tips about these or other cases is asked to contact Fresno Police at their non-emergency line or by using the Crime Stoppers tip line. In an emergency, listeners should call 911.
