Albert Kong Meng Thao, 27, was shot and killed at the Mekhong restaurant in central Fresno on September 12, 2015. The shooting happened inside the restaurant near Belmont and Blackstone avenues; Thao was one of two people struck and died after being taken to hospital. The surviving victim identified an 18-year-old Jason Brown as the shooter, and witnesses said the shooter left in a Dodge Charger.

Investigators traced several calls and text messages from Thao’s phone to a number in Oakland and tracked that phone traveling from Oakland to Fresno on the day of the murder and back to the Bay Area afterward. Detectives noted a possible connection to a 2011 homicide at the same restaurant involving Lee Saysanasy, who had been arrested in that earlier case and was awaiting trial.

Brown was described as at large after his phone went disconnected following a ten-day tracking effort. Does anyone have information about Jason Brown, the Dodge Charger, or Thao’s movements that night?
