Albuquerque Tragedy, Accountability Wins, and Neighborhood Pride - Local Pulse Update
Published 3 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is Albuquerque Local Pulse for Thursday, January 22. We start with a heartbreaking development in our crime report from the past day. A 17-year-old boy has died after a shooting Tuesday evening at the Allsups on 9501 Gibson SW in Southwest Albuquerque, where he and a teenage girl were sitting in a vehicle outside the store. The girl remains in stable condition, and police are still seeking suspects, according to Albuquerque Police spokesman Gilbert Gallegos. We extend our thoughts to their families during this tough time.
Shifting to public safety, former APD Lieutenant Justin Hunt became the ninth officer to plead guilty in the ongoing DWI dismissal scandal. He admitted taking a target to a strip club to get drunk before an arrest, highlighting accountability efforts within our department.
Over at City Hall, code enforcement is celebrating wins against problematic properties that have long frustrated neighborhoods. Recent fixes include blighted spots at 13301 Cedarbrook NE, 225 Utah NE, and 710 Cromwell SW, turning eyesores into safer spaces or cleared lots, as per the city's January 16 update. This directly improves our daily lives by reducing hazards and illegal activity.
On the school front, Wherry Elementary is on asynchronous learning today due to a waterline break on Kirtland Air Force Base, so families, plan for remote activities.
Weather-wise, chilly temps in the low 40s with light winds make for a crisp morning, but no major impacts on events. Expect partly sunny skies this afternoon with highs near 50 and clear nights ahead.
Tonight, wrestling fans, catch TNA Thursday Night iMPACT live from Tingley Coliseum, featuring Jeff Hardy versus Mustafa Ali and champion Mike Santana, bringing high-energy action right here.
New business stays steady with no big openings or closings, while our job market holds around 4 percent unemployment. Real estate sees median home prices at about 320,000 dollars, up slightly last month.
Looking ahead, report any problem properties via 311 to keep momentum going. For community spirit, residents rallied to clean up 629 San Mateo SE, transforming it from nuisance to neighborhood pride.
