Police investigate deadly southwest Albuquerque shooting, two others injured
A predawn shooting on Blake Road SW left one man dead and two others injured, adding to another violent episode this spring near Blake Road and Coors Boulevard.
A man died after a predawn shooting in southwest Albuquerque that left two other people wounded near the Vista Del Sol Mobile Home Park.
Albuquerque police said officers responded just after 3 a.m. on June 27 to the 4500 block of Blake Road SW, where they found three people with gunshot wounds. Two of the victims were taken to a local hospital and were reported in stable condition. A third victim, described as an adult man, was put on life support and later died from his injuries.
Police later investigated in and around the Vista Del Sol Mobile Home Park, where the shooting was reported. Detectives have not publicly identified a suspect, and the circumstances that led to the gunfire remain under investigation.
The shooting adds to a string of recent violent incidents in southwest Albuquerque, where Blake Road and the Coors Boulevard corridor have already drawn law enforcement attention this year. On March 22, the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office investigated a house-party shooting near Blake Road and Coors Boulevard that left five people wounded, including one juvenile.
For residents in that part of Bernalillo County, the two cases place renewed attention on the safety of the area and on how quickly investigators can identify what happened in a corridor that has now seen multiple shootings in a short span.
Anyone with information about the June 27 shooting is being asked to contact Albuquerque police at 242-COPS.
