A man has died following a solo rollover crash in west central Fresno. Fresno Police says it received calls for a car crash at 11:31 a.m. on Belmont Avenue, just west of Highway 99.

Ice cream shop in Fresno sold after 22 years. See the new concept and name
From the street, the store’s sign still says Jack’s Sweets and Treats. From the parking lot, customers can see a new sign — Morgan’s Sweets and Treats . The original owner, Jack Rocha, spent more than 20 years behind the counter, scooping ice cream onto a frozen slab, preparing mix-ins and baking cookies, but Morgan won’t be doing that for a simple reason. Morgan is a little girl. She’s the daughter of the new owner, John Orellana, who bought the shop from Rocha at the beginning of October. Rocha opened the shop almost 22 years ago. “It was a good time and I found a great buyer,” Rocha said. Before the store was Jack’s Sweets and Treats, it was Marble Slab. Rocha originally opened the business as a part-time venture while working at Wonder Bread. When Wonder Bread declared bankruptcy and shuttered many of its bakeries, Rocha decided to make Marble Slab a full-time endeavor. Marble Slab was the first business to open in Via Montana Shopping Center, and Rocha has seen dozens of businesses come and go in the time he’s been there. “I think I was open a month before Yosemite Ranch,” Rocha said. Rocha has also been
