Suspect Arrested in Deadly UNM Campus Shooting

A shooting at the University of New Mexico's Casas del Rio student housing early Friday left one person dead and another wounded with non-life-threatening injuries. The incident prompted a campus-wide shelter-in-place order, the evacuation of hundreds of students—including those attending freshman orientation—and a closure of the central campus. Authorities initially searched for a suspect believed to be at large and possibly still on campus, but later in the day, police arrested the suspect, as confirmed by Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller. Both victims were visiting a student and were not enrolled at UNM. The investigation is ongoing, with students granted limited movement on campus as police continue their work. Details about the suspect and circumstances of the arrest have not been released.
