Raid on Home with Nine Children | Santa Fe News
Description
In a high-stakes raid on a South Valley home, deputies arrested Vincent Chavez Senior and Junior amid charges of aggravated stalking, criminal damage, and witness intimidation — all tied to years of neighborhood harassment and vandalism. With nine children present, authorities feared for their safety and suspected the kids were being used as human shields. SWAT was deployed to secure the operation, which revealed shocking conditions: exposed wiring, dead animals, overflowing trash, and live rodents. A shotgun was found under a bed, adding to the danger. The home was condemned, with cleanup expected to take months. Seven children were placed in foster care, while the two adults were released under strict conditions — barred from ever returning to the unsafe residence. Sheriff John Allen called the behavior “generational,” highlighting a long-standing pattern of community disruption.
