Kalen Borchardt, 24, was shot and killed in Fresno on March 2, 2019. Officers and American Ambulance personnel found him in a parking lot at an apartment complex near Highway 99 and Parkway Drive at about 3:35 a.m.; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Early investigation by Fresno Police Department homicide detectives indicated Borchardt had arranged to meet someone at the complex and that the meeting turned deadly. Detectives identified a group of individuals potentially involved and continued to gather evidence and interview witnesses.

Months later investigators arrested 20-year-old Christian Jeffrey Coppedge and charged him with Borchardt’s murder; Coppedge was expected to be arraigned in Fresno County Superior Court on those charges. Did anyone in Fresno see or hear anything that night, or have information about Borchardt’s movements before the meeting?
