Albuquerque detectives are investigating multiple incidents where the homes or offices of local elected leaders have been targeted by gunfire in the past month. All four politicians are Democrats.
In a press conference Thursday, Albuquerque Police Department chief Harold Medina said that the department is "working with federal partners" on an investigation into the incidents, which he said is a "top priority."
"We are worried and concerned that these are connected and possibly politically motivated or personally motivated, but we don't know that for a fact," said Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller.
