Clovis Police reveal new details following arrests of 2 teens in shooting death of Caleb Quick

CLOVIS, Calif. (KFSN) -- On Saturday, Clovis Police revealed new details in the murder of 18-year-old Caleb Quick.

Chief Curt Fleming shared new screenshots of the surveillance footage leading up to the suspected gunman opening fire outside a Clovis McDonald's on April 23.

"This is early on in the evening, it's still daytime hours," he said.

Chief Fleming says that the suspects are a boy and a girl, both 16 years old, who are dating.

They first stopped at the fast-food restaurant in the white Tesla almost 40 minutes before the victim arrived.

"They stay for about 28 minutes, and at 8:12, the Tesla leaves the McDonald's parking lot with both suspects inside the vehicle," Fleming said.

Detectives say minutes after the suspects left the parking lot, Quick showed up at the McDonald's.

The 16-year-old accused shooter was then seen heading back towards the fast-food chain, this time on foot.

At the same time, the 16-year-old girl, who police say was driving the white Tesla, returned to the parking lot of the McDonald's.

Once the 16-year-old suspected shooter was inside, he watched the victim from afar for more than 10 minutes.

At around 8:56 p.m., the suspect follows Quick outside, where he shoots the 18-year-old and runs away.

"Video surveillance footage is captured in a neighborhood which we're not going to release, showing the suspect getting into this vehicle and then leaving the neighborhood," Fleming said.

Once detectives were focused on the two suspects, they were able to search the home of the young man, and inside, they found a gun that police think might be the murder weapon.

By Friday, both of the suspects had each retained private defense attorneys, who arranged to bring them in for arrest, ending a weeks-long manhunt that shocked the community.

"Whatever the motive is in this case, taking someone's life is not acceptable," Fleming said.

Chief Fleming says that detectives were working through the weekend to prepare their case for the district attorney.

Once submitted, prosecutors will have until Tuesday to file formal murder charges against the suspects.

However, the Chief Fleming says there is still more work to be done, and he expects that detectives will still be working for several months on this case.
