OFFICIALS INVESTIGATING POSSIBLE SUICIDE IN CLOVIS

CLOVIS (KSMX) – Yesterday afternoon, we learned of a tragic incident in Clovis that left one female deceased. According to the Clovis Police Department, around 4:20 p.m., a high school aged African American female was found dead outside of Hotel Clovis in downtown Clovis of what is now being investigated as a possible suicide. Further information regarding the incident has not been released as emergency personnel continue to investigate the incident. It has also come to our attention that a possible picture of the victim is circulating on certain social media platforms. This is a horrific invasion of privacy of not only the victim, but the victim’s family. We would join with law enforcement in imploring of you to NOT share such material if you are unfortunate enough to come across it in your social feeds. The deceased is someone’s daughter, possibly sister, and friend. Please be sensitive to the situation.
