At around 11:00 AM, officers from the Albuquerque Police Department were at the Tewa Motor Lodge on Central Ave. helping City of Albuquerque Code Enforcement and members of ACS to remove trespassers and relocate residents from the location. APD was detaining a group of people when one became unruly and had to be handcuffed.
The adult male, who was handcuffed during the interaction, was involved in some sort of altercation that lead to APD officers to discharge their firearms. The shooting reportedly happened around 12:20 PM.
While we were on scene, a woman claiming to be his wife stormed through the police tape and started yelling at APD officers.
