Fresno Police Report Week of Violence: Officer Shot in Domestic Call, Suspect in Custody

Fresno police and local agencies report a series of significant incidents over the past week across the city. According to ABC30 in Southwest Fresno near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Jensen Avenue, officers responded to a domestic violence call where a woman reported her husband threatened to kill her. During an attempted arrest, an officer was shot and wounded. The suspect, identified by Fresno police as 56-year-old Paul Rodrigo Cisneros, allegedly ambushed officers with a firearm and then fled. A large perimeter and shelter-in-place advisory followed in the surrounding neighborhood. Fresno police and FOX26 report that Cisneros was later located near Bardell and Vine, where a standoff ended after he sustained an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound and was transported to Community Regional Medical Center. The case remains under investigation and Cisneros is expected to face alleged charges including attempted murder of a police officer, assault with a deadly weapon, criminal threats, and firearms-related violent crime. Detectives are asking anyone who saw Cisneros or has information about his movements before the shooting to contact Fresno Police Homicide Detective R. Rockwell at (559) 621-2448 or Detective Alejandro Lopez at (559) 621-2407.
