Four killed, six injured after gunmen open fire at a backyard party in California's Fresno; police say all victims Asian men

Fresno: Ten people were shot and four of them were killed Sunday at a party in Fresno when suspects sneaked into a backyard filled with people and fired into the crowd, police said. The shooting took place about 6 pm on the city’s southeast side where people were gathered to watch a football game, Fresno Police Lt Bill Dooley said. Deputy Chief Michael Reid told the Fresno Bee and the KSEE/KGPE TV stations that a total of 10 people were shot, with three found dead in the backyard. A fourth victim died at the hospital. Six others are expected to survive and are recovering at the hospital, police said. All the victims were Asian men ranging from ages 25 to 35, Reid said. “What we do know is that this was a gathering, a family and friend gathering in the backyard,” Dooley said. “Everyone was watching football this evening when unknown suspects approached the residence, snuck into the backyard and opened fire.” [caption id=“attachment_7667701” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Fresno Police Lt.

About 35 people were at the party when the shooting began, Reid said. “Thank God that no kids were hurt,” he said. No suspect is in custody. Police said there was no immediate indication that the victims knew the shooter or shooters. Police were going door-to-door in search of surveillance video that might help them track down the suspects. The shooting took place about 0.8 kilometres from the city’s airport. Agents from the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives field office in San Francisco were responding to the shooting, the Bee reported. It was at least the second fatal gun attack Sunday in southeast Fresno, the Bee reported. A man in his 20s was shot to death early Sunday at a home in another part of the city. Police have not said whether the incidents could be connected
