Albuquerque –
Officers from the Albuquerque Police Department arrested 19-year-old Charles Madrid and charged him for today’s fatal stabbing on a city bus in Southwest Albuquerque.
According to surveillance video on the bus, the un-named 44-year-old male victim got on the bus at around 8:06 AM. from the bus stop at the intersection of Central Ave and San Mateo Blvd. NE. The suspect, Madrid, got on the bus at the Nob Hill ART bus stop at about 8:15 AM.
The bus traveled across the city to Southwest Albuquerque. At about 8:44 AM, a physical altercation occurred between the victim and two unidentified individuals near the rear of the bus. The individuals were pushing and shoving each other. Madrid was sitting in front of the individuals. After about a minute, Madrid stood up and approached the individuals, and they all sat down.
At that point, Madrid and victim appeared to exchange words and the victim rose to his feet. Madrid lunged toward the victim and thrust his right hand toward the area of the victim’s head and neck.
The victim pushed Madrid back and they grappled with each other briefly. A knife was visible in Madrid’s right hand. He shifted the knife to his left hand and kicked the victim while picking up his backpack and exited the bus.
The victim rose to his feet while still on the bus but fell back to the bus floor. He died inside the bus as a result of his wounds.
At around 11:30 AM, authorities learned that the stabbing suspect allegedly arrived at a charter school at 6800 Gonzales Rd. SW, covered in blood. It is believed that school officials were unaware of the stabbing incident when the student arrived, but the student told school officials he was in a fight and later asked for a ride home. A staff member took him home, which was located at 619 Silver Ave. SE. After learning about the stabbing, the school principal contacted APD.
At approximately noon, officers from the Southwest and Valley Area Commands went to the home at 619 Silver Ave. and began establishing a perimeter around the residence and requested aerial assistance from Air Support in the event that the suspect attempted to flee the scene.
While waiting to arrest the suspect, officers observed at least two adult individuals entering and exiting the home at various points. One of them was a female who was seen departing in a car around 12:10 PM.
ABQ RAW was on scene when they had the house surrounded. APD made public address announcements for the occupants of the home to come out. 19-year-old Madrid exited the house with his hands open and walked toward the officer giving the Public Announcements.
Madrid was taken into custody without incident at approximately 1:05 PM.
Madrid is now charged with an open count of murder and tampering with evidence.
He’ll get a slap on the hand. Two years behind bars if that. Two sides of the story though. Let’s find out
any updates on the victims name?

We have a teen mental health crisis in Albuquerque. 19 year old Charter School student carrying a knife to class says a lot about this kid. Shutting down schools during COVID played a huge part in destroying many of this generation’s ability to socialize. Our Governor MLG played a huge roll in destroying business, religious freedom and young people’s well being with her policys. FMLG.
She did such a good job “destroying religious freedom” that you guys are more obnoxious and unbearable than ever before. Won’t somebody think of the poor, victimized Christian majority that controls the entire federal government?
Christians control the federal government?
I don’t care who you are — that’s funny!
Pedophiles control the government. Christians and normies have a toe-hold in the fight against them.
Ok, JUAN.
You do realize by saying everyone in the current federal government is a pedo, you just alluded to Trump being a kiddie-diddler, correct? Which, given his shady relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, you are correct to assume your dear leader (who up until recently was in ownership of Epstein’s plane) is a pdf file.
Trump does like them on the younger side, much like his old pal Jeff.
Christians, pedos, tomato, tom-ah-to.
I guess he doesn’t have a mommy to say, “he was a good boy”, so the archetypal gelded progressivoid male principal had to supply the equivocation, and the obligatory platitudes (e.g. “he was getting his life together”). And I admire a school where the teachers don’t notice when you show up covered in fresh blood. I thought there were standards for this.
New Mexico: simply the best!
And remember, the city busses are FREE to ride. Hop on!
JUAN out here with mommy
issues of his own. It’s ok, JUAN.
Your dad is doing fine since she
walked out on you both, we’re
having a wonderful valentine’s
date later tonight. 😉
⬆️ ⬆️⬆️ Unfortunately, in NM the pos will only get maybe maybe 4 years with a plea deal!! WHY, WHY, are the buses still FREE!!! Our city needs to stop accommodating these worthless, ruthless pos!!!!
I hope he’s able to stay in prison at least 25 years !! Let’s get tougher on these little punks
T = TROLL, have a great day.
