Maurice Lewis saw the entire scene unfold Wednesday, as he and his wife were heading to the store. "We hopped in the car. As we were busting a u-turn, I heard a bunch of gunshots and I seen a car come through and I seen an arm hanging out with gun shots and you just heard, pow pow pow, so I just back up into the alley cause the gun was pointed my way."
The car took off, but Fresno Police were not far behind. They had received a call just minutes before the shooting -- regarding some type of disturbance in the area.
Lt. Anthony Martinez said, "And officers were actively patrolling the area already and were beginning to converge on what they thought was a disturbance call when they were updated it had been a drive-by shooting which is why they were able to jump on the car and get the people detained."
One person inside the car, a Hispanic man in his twenties, was shot at least once. Investigators say he and others inside the car drove by a home on Lotus and started shooting at a group of people standing outside. That's when one or more people fired back.
A man at the home later died at the hospital. The victim inside the car, was listed in critical, but stable condition Wednesday night.
Police say this shooting is gang related.
