Good morning, this is Albuquerque Local Pulse for March 21, 2025.
We're starting with breaking news from last night. Albuquerque police were involved in a shooting near Unser and Sage in the southwest part of the city. One person was taken to the hospital, but thankfully, no officers were injured. The incident is under investigation, and we'll bring you more details as they become available.
In other crime news, police have arrested a man accused of a fatal shooting in northeast Albuquerque. This arrest comes as the city continues to grapple with violent crime. On a positive note, law enforcement made progress in the tragic hit-and-run case from last year. A third teen has been arrested in connection with the death of Scott Habermehl, the beloved scientist and cyclist who was killed while biking to work at Sandia National Laboratories.
Shifting gears to city developments, the Albuquerque City Council recently voted to move forward with the Mesa Film Studios plan. This project could bring new jobs and economic opportunities to our area. Speaking of jobs, there's concern among postal workers in Albuquerque about potential federal cuts. We're keeping an eye on how this might affect local postal services.
In business news, AAA is making a big move. They're relocating their Albuquerque offices from the Northeast Heights to Uptown, reducing their office space by nearly 25,000 square feet. This reflects a broader trend of companies rightsizing their office footprints in the post-pandemic era.
For those flying out of the Sunport, you'll be pleased to know that passenger numbers are soaring. The airport served a record-breaking 5.49 million travelers in 2024, and it's on track to beat that record this year. New nonstop routes are being added, including flights to Washington D.C. and Nashville.
Weather-wise, we're looking at a chance of spotty showers today. It's a good idea to keep an umbrella handy if you're heading out. The recent dust storms have subsided, but we're always keeping an eye on air quality, especially for those with respiratory issues.
In community news, the Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation is calling for public support after thieves stole a trailer containing 17 wheelchairs and essential sports equipment for their children's wheelchair basketball program. It's a heartbreaking situation, but we're hopeful our community will come together to help these young athletes.
On a brighter note, Brother Mathias of Albuquerque could be on his way to sainthood. It's a long process, but it's exciting to see a local figure recognized for their good works.
Lastly, for sports fans, our Lobos unfortunately lost to Boise State in the Mountain West men's basketball tournament. But we're proud of their efforts this season and looking forward to what's next for the team.
This has been Albuquerque Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
