Seventeen-year-old Jovham Portis of Fresno was shot multiple times near Clinton Avenue and First Street on May 28, 2022, about 9:00 p.m. Officers who were nearby at Radio Park heard gunfire and found four teenagers with gunshot wounds; Portis was critically injured and later died at the hospital. Two other victims, aged 15 and 16, suffered non-life-threatening injuries and were expected to survive.

Investigators believe Portis was the intended target and the others were struck in the crossfire. Detectives are reviewing surveillance footage from a nearby liquor store and have said Portis had some gang affiliations, although it is unclear whether that was the motive. No arrests have been announced and the gunmen remain at large.

Anyone who was near Clinton Avenue and First Street that evening or who has information about the shooting is asked to contact the Fresno Police Department.
