NEW MEXICO – Albuquerque police released bodycam video of a fatal shooting that also injured two bystanders.
Albuquerque Police Department officials detailed a police shooting last month where officers opened fire on a knife-wielding man — killing him while also striking two bystanders in Northeast Albuquerque.
Officers Brenda Johnson, Eric Wilensky, Violet Baca and Christian Cordova fatally shot Jeramiah Salyards, 25, and also shot and injured two men standing near him — shooting one of the bystanders four times near a bus stop on Louisiana Blvd.
The four officers joined APD at different times between 2014 and 2019 and only one, Cordova, had been involved in a prior shooting. Officials said none of the officers have returned to duty.
