Homicide reported in Chico State neighborhood
A man was shot and killed Sunday night near the 900 block of West Fourth Avenue.
Chico Police found a 32-year-old man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds when they arrived. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Alleged suspects, Jason Jackson and Michaela Norman, were arrested at Flyers Gas Station. A personal item of the victim and a pistol were found in the suspect’s vehicle.
Jackson was previously arrested for a drive-by shooting in 2015.
“He was sentenced to four years and six months in state prison, but was out on parol in less than half the time,” according to Chief of Police, Mike O’Brien, in a public message.
O’Brien described the event as tragic because the victim previously lived on a campground and was placed into public housing in that area that same day.
Further information or questions regarding the shooting may be sent to CPD.
