Two suspects arrested in shooting death of Clovis teen, police say
Two suspects have been arrested in connection to the shooting death of Caleb Quick in Clovis, police announced Friday night. The Clovis Police Department said Chief Curt Fleming will hold a press conference on Saturday at police headquarters. Quick, 18, was killed outside a popular McDonald's in Clovis after a suspect first stalked him inside the fast-food restaurant. The shooter had help escaping the scene, according to police. Fleming released surveillance video on May 2 that showed Quick and his two friends entering the McDonald's, located at Willow and Nees avenues, and talking inside the restaurant for 13 minutes the night of the killing. A suspect in all-black clothing and a hoodie entered the restaurant and watched the victim. Fleming said the suspect had his hands in his waistband and inside his front pocket and did not move 'from his position.' Quick and his two friends left McDonald's. The suspect followed as he left the restaurant while Quick's friends held the door. Moments later, the suspect shot Quick on the side of the head at least one time shortly before 9 p.m. on April 23 and then fled westbound on Nees in a getaway vehicle, described as a newer white Tesla. Fleming said the suspect arrived walking eastbound from Fresno on Nees and entered the crosswalk before reaching McDonald's. 'It was a planned (attack),' Fleming said last week. 'It was obviously targeted towards Caleb.' On Tuesday morning, Clovis Police seized a newer-model white Tesla in a Fresno neighborhood that may be connected to the shooting. Clovis police served a search warrant at a home and located a parked Tesla in the garage, which was towed for evidence. Anyone with information is asked to call police 559-324-2800 or can call Valley Crime Stoppers at 559-498-7867. Crime Stoppers is offering a $10,000 reward.

Update: Police pursuit ends in fatal three-car collision in Fresno County intersection
The three-vehicle collision that killed two people Saturday night was a result of the driver doing donuts in the intersection before leading officers in a pursuit Saturday night at Temperance and Gettysburg avenues in Clovis. A reddit user posted from their dashcam that shows the driver peeling out from the middle of the intersection before a pursuit started. Clovis Police released a statement late Sunday afternoon saying officers heard sounds of a vehicle 'peeling out and driving recklessly' just after 9:30 p.m. Police said officers saw the Dodge Charger peeling out with smoke coming from the tires and attempted to pull the vehicle over as it sped away southbound on Temperance. The driver failed to stop for their lights and sirens, spokesperson Ty Wood said. The driver approached Temperance and Belmont avenues where it collided with two vehicles. The California Highway Patrol investigated the collision and said the Dodge Charger collided with the left rear of a Toyota Camry that was stopped at the intersection's stop sign. The Dodge continued to drive out of control before colliding with a Chevrolet Tahoe that was going northbound on Temperance Avenue. The Dodge and Tahoe came to rest blocking the intersection. Two 19-year-olds in the Dodge were pronounced dead. A 20-year-old passenger had critical injuries and a fourth passenger had minor injuries. The driver, Luis Felix of Fresno, suffered major injuries and was taken to Community Regional Medical Center. He is suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol, CHP said. The driver and a woman of the Chevrolet sustained moderate injuries, while three minor passengers, ages 9, 4, and 1, suffered minor injuries. The driver of the Toyota also sustained minor injuries, Salas said. The investigation is ongoing. 'The Clovis Police Department urges drivers never get behind the wheel if you are under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and to drive safely. To report a possible DUI or reckless driver, call 911,' Wood said. Police are deciding what charges the driver is facing.
