    A man shot and killed at a gathering Tuesday night near Manchester Center in Fresno was identified in a police update Thursday.

    Officers went to the 3700 block of North Abby Street just before 9:45 p.m. after receiving two ShotSpotter notifications.

    Officers arrived and found 35-year-old Sylvester Choi on the ground unresponsive with multiple gunshot wounds to the upper body.

    Choi was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

    A 20-year-old woman at the scene had a graze wound. She was treated and released.

    A third shooting victim — described to be a 30-year-old man — was dropped off at Community Regional Medical Center and was hit multiple times to the upper and lower body. He was listed in stable condition.

    Homicide detectives learned Choi and the two other victims were attending a gathering at the location, when an unknown suspect fired at the group, striking all three.

    The motive behind the shooting is unknown, and detectives are reviewing video surveillance from the surrounding area to identify the suspect.

    Detectives are also attempting to identify other individuals who attended the gathering who might have witnessed the shooting.

    Anyone calling with information can call Crime Stoppers at 559-498-7867 or call homicide detective V. Miranda at 559-621-2452 or Detective J. Espinoza at 559-621-2415 .
