Albuquerque –
This morning, Northeast Area Command officers responded to a report from ACS of a person appearing to be deceased near 4601 Carlisle Blvd. N.E. The location was inside a tent on a drainage arroyo path just north of Montgomery Blvd. Officers arrived around 9 AM, and confirmed the individual was deceased.
A person driving in the area contacted us around 9:17 AM, reporting that APD appeared to be investigating a scene involving a vehicle near the dead end of the street. When we arrived we noticed the focus was on a tent on the ditch bank and no vehicle was involved.
Last night, around 10:30 PM, dispatch received a related call about shots fired in this area. Upon officers arrival, they reportedly located casings in an apartment parking lot, but no victim was located at that time.
This is the second homicide investigation for the day.
