Pacer Dewayne Hampton, a 56-year-old resident of Fresno, California, was killed on April 13, 2021. His body was found inside a vehicle that had crashed through an iron fence near Olive and Polk avenues. The scene initially appeared to be a traffic crash, but investigators determined Hampton died from gunshot wounds, and his death was recorded as the first homicide in Fresno County for 2021.

Authorities arrested 40-year-old Brandon Engelman of Coarsegold, who is also known as Milkweed and has reported ties to local white supremacist gangs including the Fresneck gang. Investigators say Engelman specifically targeted Hampton and that the two had a long-standing dispute. A white Chevy Tahoe with black door handles and 22-inch rims was traced to Engelman; search warrants at his Coarsegold residence and another Fresno location recovered that vehicle and several weapons, though it has not been confirmed whether any recovered weapon was used in the killing. Engelman faces murder charges and additional counts including kidnapping, elder abuse, and domestic violence, and detectives say other individuals may have been involved.

Does anyone have information about Hampton, the vehicle, or the dispute between him and Engelman that could help the investigation?
