Suspect in Tachi Palace shooting who fled from Fresno officers dies, police say

Two people were shot Friday night at Tachi Palace Casino Resort in Lemoore and a suspect led police on a chase in Fresno before turning the gun on himself, authorities said.

The Kings County Sheriff’s Office said the shooting happened at 6:40 p.m. in the Tachi Palace parking lot.

A person went to the entertainment center to call for help.

Deputies responded and found a man and a woman who had been struck. Both went to a local hospital and their conditions were not known Saturday. Deputies said one of the victims was struck in the upper torso.

Deputies said there was no immediate threat at the Palace.

The suspect fled the scene and deputies notified Fresno Police to say they believed he was driving to Fresno, about 40 miles north of the casino.

Officers later found the suspect in Fresno and a brief chase ensued before he shot himself at Chance and Hamilton, police said.

He was taken to Community Regional Medical Center and died Saturday morning.

Anyone with information is asked to call Kings County Sheriff’s Office at 559-852-2720.

Police blocked off Chance and Hamilton in Fresno, California after a suspect believed to be responsible for a Tachi Palace shooting in Lemoore injured himself on Friday, Jan. 31, 2025.
