Members of the Fresno County Sheriff’s Crime Scene Unit have identified 35-year-old Isaias Lopez of Coalinga as the victim of a recent deadly shooting.

Just before midnight on Wednesday, July 24, deputies responded to a 911 call from a home in Riverdale, near W. Mount Whitney and Garfield Avenues. Upon arrival, they found a man who had been shot. Deputies and EMS personnel provided first aid, but the man ultimately died.
