ATWATER, Calif. (KTNV) — California authorities are looking for information on homicide suspects who they say have ties to Las Vegas.
The Merced County Sheriff's Office said deputies responded to a shooting in July 2022 outside of Atwater in central California.
According to 911 calls, suspects fired multiple shots from a vehicle towards four occupants of another vehicle. The shooting killed two men: Ruben Coronado, 23, and Eli Correa, 24. A woman was also critically injured.
The sheriff's office said the suspects are still at large, but they have surveillance video connecting a silver 2020 Mazda CX-9 SUV to the shooting. Investigators said they believe the vehicle and the suspects have ties to Las Vegas.
"We believe there are people in the community who may have seen or heard something
that could help move this case forward," said a spokesperson for the sheriff's office. "Even the smallest detail could prove important."
