Police break up early morning gang altercation on May 21

Officers immediately responded to the scene at which time the suspects fled. Due to the proximity of additional officers, a perimeter was established around the area and the suspects were caught.

Officers contacted an injured man, a 26-year-old northern gang member, and provided first aid for injuries to his face and torso. Police, while treating him, discovered that he had received several lacerations and two puncture wounds to his body. He was transported to Kaweah Delta Hospital where he was treated for his injuries.

Detectives and investigators from the Kings County Gang Task Force arrived on scene and continued investigating the incident. Based on information obtained on the scene a search warrant was served on a residence on Skaggs Street and four suspects were taken into custody in relation to this incident. All four are believed to be Bulldog gang members out of Coalinga.

The three adult suspects: Shaun Rector 18, Daniel Sanchez 32, and Tres Tadlock 21, were booked into the Kings County Jail for attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon causing great bodily injury, and gang enhancement. Their bail was set at $575,000. The 17-year-old male was booked into the Kings County Juvenile Center and will be held without bail.

Anyone with additional information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Lemoore Police Department at 559-924-5333 or 559-924-9574.
