LAKE COUNTY, Calif. ? A young Clearlake man shot in the face during a Sunday confrontation remains hospitalized and in intensive care due to his injuries, with family saying his condition has worsened.
Steven Farnan, 20, was shot in the face following a physical fight that occurred at around 1 p.m. Sunday in the Clear Lake Riviera, as Lake County News has reported.
He fought with a subject at a residence in the 10000 block of Fairway Drive near Sierra Drive before another male shot him, according to witnesses.
Reports from the scene indicated the suspects fled the area in a blue hatchback.
As of early Tuesday, no arrests in the case had been made, according to jail booking records.
Farnan, now at an out-of-county hospital for treatment, suffered a shattered jaw from the gunshot, with the bullet going down his neck and hitting an artery. Early on, doctors had struggled to stop the bleeding before finally stabilizing him, his family reported.
However, early Tuesday his aunt, Kimberly Cochran of Montana, told Lake County News that Farnan had taken a turn for the worse.
She said he was in intensive care and that doctors could not do surgery to remove the bullet from his neck.
Cochran added that doctors are not sure if Farnan will survive his injury.
Farnan?s family asked anyone who has information about the suspect in his shooting to call the Lake County Sheriff?s Office.
The sheriff?s office can be reached through Central Dispatch at 707-263-2690 on the holiday or at 707-262-4200 during main business hours.
