Rural team members assigned to the Multi-Agency Gang Enforcement Consortium (MAGEC) have arrested 22 year old Juwuan Jones of Fresno.
On December 29th he was booked into the Fresno County Jail on two felony counts of assault with a firearm. He has since posted bond to bail out of jail.
Around 1:00 am on December 24th, Fresno County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a call of two people being shot. Deputies arrived at a home on the 1400 block of N. Piedra Ave. in Sanger and found a large party taking place with hundreds of guests. Two men in their 20s suffered gunshot wounds and were transported to the hospital. Deputies detained several people and interviewed them to learn what happened. The shooting was believed to be gang-related. MAGEC followed up on the case and determined Juwuan Jones was responsible for the shooting. On December 29th, MAGEC found Jones at a home on the 3300 block of E.
