Albuquerque Shooting Under Review | Albuquerque News

Albuquerque erupted in chaos when Stephen Griego opened fire downtown, sparking a deadly police response that left him dead and another victim fatally wounded. Bodycam footage shows officers firing 16 shots — including Sergeant Rodriguez urgently yelling “Stop shooting!” — as Griego was already down. One officer fired 10 rounds believing Griego was still advancing; others noted his hands near his waistband. Now, multiple investigations are underway: criminal probes by the Multi-Agency Task Force and an internal review by police to assess policy compliance. A bystander was likely struck by a stray bullet, and nearby property sustained damage. Rodriguez is back on duty, while three officers remain on leave as prosecutors weigh potential charges.
