Two men were reportedly shot in Fairmont and Holt Avenue in Fresno, California on Wednesday after a fight. One of them later died in the hospital, said the US police.
After the incident, speculations began on social media that the person killed in the incident was Canada-based gangster Goldy Brar. The reports were picked up by some news agencies too.
"We can confirm that the victim was not Goldy Brar. The victim’s identity is in the press release and his picture is attached. We do not know where the rumour that it was Goldy Brar began, but it wasn’t from us. International news outlets began publishing this as a fact before checking with our agency,” US police confirmed to India Today newspaper.
"If you are inquiring because of the online chatter claiming that the shooting victim is 'Goldy Brar', we can confirm that this is absolutely not true,” Lieutenant William J Dooley was quoted as saying by news agency IANS.
In a press release, Fresno police department stated, "On Tuesday, April 30, 2024, at 5.30 pm, Fresno Police officers in the Northwest District responded to Fairmont Avenue and Holt Avenue for a ShotSpotter activation. Responding officers found 37- year-old Xavier Gladney suffering from a gunshot wound. Gladney was transported to CRMC, but he was pronounced deceased. Additionally, a thirteen-year-old juvenile was dropped off at CRMC with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound. This juvenile was also present at Fairmont Avenue and Holt Avenue when Gladney was fatally shot.”
"Homicide detectives have identified the suspect responsible for the murder of Gladney as 33- year-old Darren Williams. A warrant for murder and assault with a deadly weapon has been issued for his arrest. We are asking the public for any information leading to the arrest of Williams. The motive for this shooting stems from a gang-related interpersonal dispute," it added.
Satinderjit Singh aka Goldy Brar is a wanted criminal and was named a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
A close aide of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, Goldy Brar, hogged the limelight after he claimed responsibility for singer Sidhu Moose Wala's murder through a Facebook post.
