Five Democratic politicians' homes or offices have been shot at in Albuquerque

"We're worried and concerned that these are connected and possibly politically motivated or personally motivated," Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller, left, said of a string of shootings. He's seen here alongside Police Chief Harold Medina during a press conference via the Albuquerque Police Department's Facebook livestream.

Local and state police are working with the FBI in Albuquerque, N.M., to investigate five shootings that have targeted Democratic politicians' homes or offices since in the past month.

Bernalillo County Commissioner Adriann Barboa, whose home was the first to come under fire, told NPR on Friday that the attacks have been difficult to process, "especially knowing that other women of color elected officials have also been targeted."

3. Not from NM, but my internet is worldwide

Albuquerque Police Department Chief Harold Medina announced Monday afternoon that a suspect is in custody regarding the recent shootings of Democrats’ homes and offices. 

“We do have a firearm in our position that is linked to one of the shootings,” Medina said. “We are not going to get into details as this is still an active investigation.”

Medina declined to release the name of the person of interest, citing the investigation. The only information APD released about the person is that he is a male who is currently in custody on an unrelated charge. Law enforcement also have a firearm that may be connected to the shootings.

“We never want this to happen,” Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller said. “But there is a difference when it’s elected officials. These are individuals who participate in democracy whether we agree with them or not and that’s why this act of violence, I think, has been so rattling for so many people.”

7. It's six homes or offices shot

While the suspect has been arrested, the only information given is that the shooter is male and under 50.

We , 210 miles south of Albuquerque (Cowboys for Trump) in Couy Griffin’s county, asked if Couy has been seen there. Sort of jokingly.

I imagine Law Enforcement is looking for accomplices or other evidence. Usually the person arrested is named, unless they are a minor, so it still seems peculiar

8. This should be getting more national coverage

These MAGAts need serious consequences

10. It was on CNN tonight

Honestly, we were already on pins and needles with “….. only good Democrat is dead Democrat…” Couy Griffin.

Then yesterday and today we had Westboro-type idiots yelling at our high school students.
