A man shot in the leg Saturday might have been involved in a large brawl at Fresno’s Roeding Park, police said.
Fresno Police Lt. Leslie Williams said the shooting happened at 6:52 p.m. regarding a fight inside the park where callers told police that someone involved was possibly shooting a gun.
Several people left in their vehicles, Williams said.
Williams said that witnesses told officers someone fired a gun into the air to break up the fight.
Officers also followed a truck, seen leaving the park, that witnesses said was involved in the fight. The man threw a gun out of the window, Williams said.
