From ABC 30 (abc30.com- Fresno and Central Valley California):
FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) --
The Porterville Police Department is searching for a suspect that tried to shoot multiple people, including two children, with a hunting rifle.
Officers say 27-year-old Mario Estrella of Porterville got into an argument with a victim Sunday morning. As the victim tried to run from him, he grabbed the rifle--firing multiple times.
A four-year-old and six-year-old were standing with the victim when the man opened fire. No one was injured.
Estrella ran from the scene and was last seen near Olive Avenue.
Officers say he has very distinctive tattoos on his left forearm.
He is wanted on three counts of attempted murder...and should be considered dangerous.

Thoughts? As of this posting date (2/17/2019), Estrella is still listed on Central Valley Crime Stoppers. (See link above). Additionally, as of the aforementioned posting date, there have been no court movements since a warrant was issued for estrella back in August of 2018, according to Tulare County's online court records: efiling.tulare.courts.ca.gov/?q=node/364/1497788/FV-Documents-Portal
In any case, it is a miracle those little kids didn't get killed thanks to Estrella's alleged reckless actions. (To put it mildly).
