Oley Thenbouapha, 30, was found with multiple gunshot wounds on the 2000 block of West Dudley Avenue in the early hours of October 1, 2014. Deputies responding to a disturbance call with possible shots fired located him seated on the ground in front of a residence; he received first aid and was taken to Community Regional Medical Center but died later that morning.

The Fresno County Sheriff’s Office treated the shooting as a homicide and described it as the county’s thirteenth homicide of the year. Initial reports suggested he may have been shot during a robbery, but no suspects or arrests were announced at the time and details remained limited. Detectives were pursuing leads and gathering evidence.

Thenbouapha had prior criminal history, including a federal guilty plea in the Eastern District of California in 2009, a fact investigators noted while exploring possible motives. Does anyone have information about that night or saw activity near Dudley and Hughes on October 1, 2014?
