Three people dead in shooting in Downtown Fresno

Three people are dead following a shooting in downtown Fresno on Tuesday morning.

Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer says the shooting happened at a bus stop near a Catholic Charities building.

Police have identified the shooter as thirty-nine-year-old Kori Ali Muhammad.

Muhammad was arrested shortly afterward. He was already wanted for a separate killing from last week, in which a Motel 6 security guard in Fresno was gunned down.

Authorities say Muhammad yelled “God is great” in Arabic while being taken into custody
