Fray Martin Rodriguez, 29, of Reedley, California, was found shot to death inside a dark-colored Chevrolet Malibu on January 23, 2016. Alfonso Barbosa, 31, also of Reedley, was inside the same vehicle and was fatally shot; deputies found the car parked awkwardly on the side of the road near E. Dinuba and Crawford Avenues with its headlights and engine still running. Investigators reported no evidence inside the car that either man had fired a weapon.

Detectives said the killings appeared to be targeted rather than random and have not ruled out a possible gang connection, but the motive remained unclear while investigators worked to establish the victims’ movements before the shooting. No arrests or suspects had been identified and the case was unsolved. If anyone knew Rodriguez or Barbosa, or has information about their whereabouts before the incident, please contact the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office.
