FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. – Authorities have arrested two men in connection with a double homicide that occurred over nine years ago in Fresno County.
The Fresno County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the arrests of 26-year-old Erik Madrigal Garcia and 27-year-old Jonathan Morales Ramos, both now facing murder charges. Ramos is already serving time in prison for an unrelated offense.
The case dates back to January 2016, when deputies discovered the bodies of 31-year-old Alfonso Barbosa and 29-year-old Fray Martin Rodriguez. The two men were found fatally shot inside a running vehicle abandoned near Dinuba and Crawford Avenues, just east of Reedley.
Following years of investigation, detectives identified Garcia and Ramos as the primary suspects. Authorities believe the killings were linked to gang-related activity and that the victims were specifically targeted.
