Ricky Brogdon, a 30-year-old Fresno resident, was shot to death on August 15, 2019, when someone fired a shotgun through a metal security door at his central Fresno home. The shooting occurred in the middle of the night after Brogdon called 911 to report an intruder in his backyard. He went to check and was struck in the head through the back door.

The shooter was identified as 18-year-old Juan Daniel Grado. Brogdon’s two sons were in the house and later testified that they heard the gunshot and saw their father arguing with Grado in the backyard. Grado was arrested shortly after the incident when the California Highway Patrol stopped a car and found a smoking gun inside. Prosecutors said Grado went to the residence intending to scare Brogdon; the defense described the shooting as a tragic accident arising from a confrontation and suggested a possible love triangle would be explored at trial.

Are there witnesses or anyone with information about that night who can help clarify what happened?
