Sevastion Prado, 43, was shot late on the night of June 19, 2025, near Floradora and Winery avenues in southeast Fresno. Officers arriving about 10:58 p.m. found him unresponsive with a gunshot wound to the upper chest; he was taken to Community Regional Medical Center and pronounced dead at 11:34 p.m. The Fresno Police Department identified Prado as the victim and tied the attack to a personal dispute.

Police say the confrontation involved a relationship conflict between Prado and a 46-year-old man, Michael Anthony Jacintho, who was romantically involved with a woman previously linked to Prado. Investigators allege the assailant confronted Prado at the scene and fired a single round into his chest before fleeing. Officers stopped a vehicle shortly afterward near First Street and Clinton Avenue and arrested Jacintho; he was booked on suspicion of murder and a parole violation.

In court proceedings that followed, prosecutors described the shooting as a deadly confrontation tied to the personal relationship, and a key witness—identified as the defendant’s stepson—testified at a preliminary hearing as the case moved toward trial. Did anyone in southeast Fresno see or hear anything that night that could help piece together what happened?
