Nhia Lee, a 65-year-old Fresno resident, was shot during a violent spree on January 16, 2014, and later died in his pickup truck after crashing on the southbound 99 onramp. The spree began with multiple attempted carjackings and shootings in Northwest Fresno. The suspect, identified as Joshua Lewis, fired at four different cars and shot three people, including Lee. Lee’s wife, who was in the vehicle with him, suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds and was taken to hospital.

Lewis went on to carjack another vehicle and was confronted by an off-duty corrections officer who fired at him. Lewis later crashed a stolen SUV a few miles away and was found dead, likely from the officer’s gunshot wounds. Investigators determined Lewis acted alone; no other suspects or accomplices were reported. Does anyone have memories of that day or information about Nhia Lee that could add context to his life in the Fresno community?
