An 18-year-old Reedley pregnant woman is listed in critical condition at CRMC after being shot in the head.
Around 10:30 Sunday night, a shooting occurred on the 10800 block of S. Englehart Ave. in Reedley.
Moments earlier, the occupants of two SUVs were involved in a road rage incident that began near the Fresno County / Tulare County line.
A 26 year old male driver with his 18-year-old wife, Ma Delacruz Arciga, had passed the suspect’s vehicle because it was driving slowly.
As the vehicles headed northbound on S. Englehart Ave., the suspect’s light brown colored SUV pulled alongside the victim’s car and someone fired at least one shot through the driver’s side window, striking the passenger, Ma Delacruz Arciga in left eye with a bullet.
Arciga is still hospitalized, in stable but critical condition.
Her unborn baby remains alive.
Her husband is fully cooperating with the investigation.
Fresno County Sheriff’s homicide detectives and the Crime Scene Unit interviewing potential witnesses found the confrontation appears to have been unprovoked by the husband and wife, so detectives are still looking at this as a case of road rage.
This is an ongoing investigation and no arrests have been made.
The suspect’s vehicle is described as being a light brown colored 2006 – 2012 Chevy Tahoe, Suburban or GMC Yukon.
Anyone with additional information on this case is asked to contact the Sheriff’s Office at (559) 600-3111, Detective Donna Davis at (559) 600-8207 or Crime Stoppers at (559) 498-STOP (7867).
