BN – New Mexico State Police are investigating a double homicide that took place early Sunday morning involving biker gangs.
NMSP said two motorcycle gang members were killed and two more injured in a shooting in Los Chavez outside of the Wild Pony near an Allsup’s convenience store.
The gun fire rang out around 12:30 a.m.
Investigators say they’re having a hard time getting much more information than that.
“We’re trying to get interviews with anyone that was involved, but right now I can tell you that we don’t have a lot of cooperation,” NMSP Sgt. Elizabeth Armijo.
NMSP wouldn’t release the names of the biker gangs involved.
They’re trying to figure what led to the gunfire and exactly how many shots were fired.
Neighbors said the incident shook them up a bit.
“It freaked me out I didn’t sleep too good after that because I didn’t know if maybe they’d be looking for some place to go and hide or if they were on foot or in a vehicle,” Lawrence Smith said, who lives nearby.
NMSP said it has alerted other police departments, even departments outside of the state, to be aware of possible retaliation by the gangs.
