Weekend mayhem

Chico Police were busy over the Memorial Day weekend, with a shooting and a high-profile arrest. On Sunday (May 27) around 3:40 a.m., a fight erupted on the 1200 block of North Cedar Street, ending with a shooting in which no wounded victims were found, according to a press release. Police arrested suspects Shevvy Franklin, 19; William Stewart, 18; and Ryan Brown, 19, all from Benicia.

About 6:30 p.m. the night before, officers received a noise complaint about a party on the 600 block of West Eighth Street. As the crowd dispersed, Shawntre Tillis, 23, of Antioch, was arrested for possessing a concealed, loaded revolver in public, and outstanding warrants. Tillis appears to be the same person implicated in a drunken-driving collision on Interstate 5 last March that killed two others, according to the Butte County District Attorney’s Office.
