FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- More than 50 officers helped track down three men wanted for a drive-by shooting in central Fresno.

Police say they heard gunfire near Sussex and Clark Streets Saturday night.

Two victims then pulled up in a car with several bullet holes and told officers three men in an SUV shot at them. Other officers in the area saw the SUV speeding away from the scene and chased it until the vehicle crashed and the suspects ran away.

Police eventually arrested Javonni Lavender, Ryan Myles, and Delonte Love and recovered a rifle in a nearby yard.

Investigators believe the shooting was gang-related.
