Authorities in New Mexico's largest city say a suspect believed to be connected to at least one of the recent shootings at or near the homes or offices of several elected officials is in custody
FILE - Rep. Javier Martinez, D-Albuquerque, speaks during a New Mexico House Ways & Means Committee meeting on March 20, 2015. Authorities in New Mexico's largest city have found evidence of gunfire at the home of another elected official in early December, bringing the number of officials who have reported gunfire at or near their homes or officers over recent weeks to six. ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.
In the latest case to come to light, Albuquerque Democrat Javier Martinez, the incoming speaker of the state House, inspected his home following reports last week of gunshots fired toward the homes of other officials or in the vicinity of their offices. Public safety and gun control are expected to be among the top issues as the chorus of residents who don't feel safe in Albuquerque and elsewhere has reached a fever pitch.
The shootings began in early December when eight rounds were fired at the home of Bernalillo County Commissioner Adriann Barboa, police said. Days later, someone shot at former Bernalillo County Commissioner Debbie O’Malley’s home. Both Democrat and Republican state lawmakers have called on the public to provide information that might help law enforcement.
