FRESNO — In the early morning hours (1:30 AM) of April 19, 23-year-old Sierra Berg was driving her car when she drove up onto the curb on the 4700 block of E. Hedges Avenue.
The FPD had received calls of gunshots in the area and, when they responded, they found Hedges in the driver’s seat of her car, suffering from gunshot wounds.
