Lemoore Police arrest one of two suspects Monday in May 17 homicide

Lemoore Police responded last Wednesday (May 17) to the 800 block of Hanford-Armona Rd. where they found a stabbing victim.  Life-saving measures were taken, but the victim died at the scene. Detectives have been actively working all leads in this case since the incident occurred.  Based on their investigation, detectives identified two suspects who they say may be responsible for the homicide.

Suspect Isaac Gabriel Gaytan

While the Lemoore Police Department has arrested Macias, an 18-year-old Hispanic male from the Hanford area, they're still looking for Issac Gabriel Gaytan, a 23-year-old Hispanic male from Lemoore.  Both subjects are wanted in connection with the May 17 death. 

Gaytan is identified as a Hispanic male with black hair and brown eyes. He is 5-foot eight inches tall and weights about 190 pounds.

The Lemoore Police Department is asking for the public’s help with information concerning the whereabouts of Jaime Alfredo Macias, or Isaac Gabriel Gaytan.  Anyone with information on this case is asked to call Lemoore Police Department at 559-924-9574, or 559-924-5333 after 5 pm. 

The Lemoore Police Department is continuing its investigation into the homicide and working with area law enforcement to locate the suspects. Gaytan is considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached by the public.

Because the suspects knew the victim of the homicide, this was not a random act of violence. The current investigation has not yielded any known threat to the general public. However, the public should not approach them and should call 911 immediately if they come into contact with them.
