This is a press release from the Fortuna Police Department. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:
On 3/2/2016 at about 7:00 pm officers were dispatched to a report of a physical altercation involving several subjects at a residence in the 1200 block of Home Ave. in Fortuna.
Upon arrival Officers learned that the physical altercation had taken part between two groups. One of the groups fled prior to officers arriving on scene. Some of the involved individuals on scene had sustained minor injuries as a result of the altercation and did not require emergency medical treatment.

It should be noted that the group that arrived at the residence brought a wooden club, knifes and a handgun which was reportedly discharged one time into the air.
