Update: “Mikey Beck, who was staying in student housing this week as part of new student orientation, said he heard gunshots overnight and saw what appeared to be an injured [sic] person hiding in some bushes. Two other people jumped out of a dorm window and ran, he said.

“Beck said he was excited to start his freshman year but the incident was disconcerting.

“'it’s really sketchy out here. just being in albuquerque is really scary,' he said.

[How can it be “sketchy” on a university campus?! And what was a 14-year-old doing in a dorm room after midnight, or any other time of day, for that matter? What were a bunch of young people doing in a dorm room after midnight? What was the killer doing there, before he began killing? I hope a bunch of new students leave, and demand full refunds.]

“'not far from the dorms, a line of university buses waited for students to board, many of them carrying backpacks and pulling small luggage carts with their belongings. The university was conducting a “staged, tactical evacuation,” spokesperson [sic] Cinnamon Blair said in an emailed statement. people were told not to move without direction from campus police. “the university in central Albuquerque has about 23,000 students during the school year. new students like Beck have been visiting as part of scheduled orientations ahead of the fall semester, which begins in about three weeks. “'an increased law enforcement presence on and around the campus was planned for coming days, university president Garnett Stokes said in a letter to the campus community. “'we understand this incident may be especially distressing for new students and their families who are here this week for orientation,' Garnett wrote. “'mayor Tim Keller said his thoughts were with the victim’s loved ones and the university community. “'we are heartbroken by the tragic loss of life that occurred today on the university of new mexico campus,' Keller said in a statement. “'new mexico’s largest city has struggled with violent crime in recent years, particularly among juveniles. District Attorney Sam Bregman, who is running for the Democratic nomination for governor, has called for state lawmakers to do more to address what he describes as a crisis. “'the plea for legislative action comes amid violence in New Mexico involving young suspects, including a fatal hit-and-run in Albuquerque and a shooting in Las Cruces in March that killed three and wounded 15 others. “'prosecutors, law enforcement and republican lawmakers have pressed democratic gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham to convene a special legislative session to address the state’s crime problem. despite voicing her disappointment with the democratic-controlled legislature at the end of the last session, the governor has not given recent indications that she will be calling lawmakers back to Santa Fe.”
