Lemoore officers were on C Street when they heard multiple gun shots on nearby D Street. Local dispatch alerted the police that an older, white 4-drive vehicle was shooting at a group of juveniles. The victims apparently ran towards Wells Fargo Band and were not located.

A Lemoore officer observed a vehicle matching the description on South Lemoore Avenue and Highway 198. A Lemoore officer attempted a traffic stop, but the suspect vehicle immediately fled the scene. Lemoore police initiated the pursuit but later terminated it near Jersey Avenue when the occupants fled the vehicle.

The Kings County Sheriff’s Office despite a search was unable to locate the suspects.

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