Cassie Michael and Byron Rangel arrested for shooting that killed 18-year-old Caleb Quick
CLOVIS, Calif. — One day after two teenagers were arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Caleb Quick, Clovis Police Chief Curt Fleming is scheduled to provide a public update on the case Saturday morning at 10 a.m.
The arrests stem from a shooting that occurred on the night of April 23 outside a McDonald’s restaurant located at Willow and Nees Avenues.
Surveillance footage captured a suspect dressed in black following Caleb Quick for approximately 13 minutes before fatally shooting him outside the business.
Following the incident, the investigation stalled for more than a week.
However, progress was made when Clovis Police released surveillance images of a white Tesla believed to have been used as a getaway vehicle.
A teenage girl seen in connection with the vehicle was initially detained but later released.
On Friday, developments accelerated. Clovis Police arrested two 16-year-olds, identified as Cassie Michael and Byron Rangel, in connection with the homicide, Channel2 NOW has learned.
Clovis Police Chief Curt Fleming did confirm that both suspects were facing homicide charges and were booked on suspicion of Penal Code 187.
Both suspects also attended Clovis Unified schools at the time of the shooting.
According to authorities, investigators had been closing in on the suspects and planned coordinated arrests.
The female suspect, represented by a private defense attorney, voluntarily surrendered to police.
She was at the attorney’s office in downtown Fresno when they arranged her transport to Clovis Police Headquarters.
Shortly after, the male suspect also surrendered, turning himself in around 3:30 p.m.
Chief Fleming is expected to provide additional details and address community concerns at the scheduled press briefing.

Suspect killed in officer-involved shooting at Cedar Creek Marina in Mt. Juliet
MT. JULIET, Tenn. — Authorities have identified two victims killed during an active shooter incident at Cedar Creek Marina in Mt. Juliet late Friday night.
The suspect, identified as Gary Haley, a convicted felon with an extensive criminal history, is deceased following an officer-involved shooting, officials confirmed.
Mount Juliet Police officers were dispatched at approximately 9:30 p.m. Friday to the Cedar Creek Marina, located in the 9000 block of Saundersville Road, after receiving reports of a man threatening another individual on the docks.
Due to the active shooter report, a shelter-in-place order was issued for the surrounding area as a precaution.
Upon arrival, officers located an adult male suffering from a gunshot wound.
The victim was later identified as Robby Brogdon, who was transported to a local hospital for emergency medical treatment.
Despite life-saving efforts, Brogdon later succumbed to his injuries.
Investigators determined that the suspected shooter had retreated to a boat within the marina and had barricaded himself inside.
The standoff continued for several hours as officers secured the scene and attempted to resolve the situation safely.
At approximately 1:00 a.m. Saturday, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) reported that the suspect engaged responding officers and fired shots at them under circumstances that remain under investigation. Officers returned fire.
The suspect, Gary Haley, was later found deceased aboard the vessel.
During the course of the response, officers also discovered a second adult male victim, Nathan Jones, who had been shot by the suspect.
Jones was pronounced dead at the scene.
No law enforcement officers were injured during the incident.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has assumed responsibility for the investigation, which includes a homicide, an attempted homicide, and an officer-involved shooting.
TBI agents are actively conducting interviews, collecting evidence, and working to establish a comprehensive timeline of events.
Upon completion of the investigation, findings will be submitted to 15th Judicial District Attorney General Jason Lawson for review.
Authorities stated that additional information will be released as it becomes available.
