The quickest way to get caught up on the most important things happening today in Albuquerque.

Hey Albuquerque: As you may know, Amazon Web Services experienced an outage on Tuesday that affected the Albuquerque Daily. Some of you might have received a late newsletter on Wednesday, or no newsletter at all. Please know this was unfortunately beyond our control, but know that we are fully back in business! - Rachel Kilimnik


First, today's weather:

Turning cloudy. High: 59 Low: 42.


Here are the top stories in Albuquerque today:

  1. The Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office released details regarding a Tuesday night shooting where a man was shot by a deputy in northwest Albuquerque. Deputies were dispatched to a call that was about a domestic violence incident earlier in the evening. Deputies showed up at the apartment complex at around 9 p.m. and made contact with the victim. However, as they were talking, the suspect arrived at the scene. The suspect quickly fled on foot, sparking a pursuit and a physical altercation when deputies tried to apprehend the suspect, where one of their shots struck the suspect. (KOB)
  2. The charges are piling up against a career criminal as he sits in jail awaiting trial. Julian Candelaria was arrested in October, after the Albuquerque Police Department says he was found passed out in a car in the middle of the intersection at San Pedro and Southern, then fled from officers. Candelaria has also been arrested six times in four years on car theft charges. (KRQE News 13)
  3. The Baca Community Health clinic was opened just a month ago to give locals easier access to vaccinations and COVID tests. (KOAT New Mexico)
  4. Security camera videos from multiple Bob's Burgers locations in Albuquerque show a criminal just this week, showing up with a sledgehammer, and trying to break through the outside wall to the restaurant's office. (KOB)
  5. An Albuquerque man has pleaded guilty in federal court to being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition. (KRQE News 13)
