New Mexico Shooting
The shooting was “honestly one of the most horrific and difficult days that Farmington has ever had as a community,” he said.Investigators were still struggling to determine a motive for the attack, including talking to the shooter’s family. At Hills Church, just a few miles away from the attack scene, dozens of people gathered around a tall metal cross as the sun set Monday to pray. Some wrapped their arms around each other as they listened. The mayor and law enforcement officers were among those in the crowd.
One Farmington officer was shot and taken to the hospital, where he was treated and released, while a state police officer also was shot and drove himself to the hospital where he remained and is doing well, Hebbe said. That officer was reported to be in stable condition. "Obviously, elderly people — he didn’t have no sympathy for them. Who’s to say he would have sympathy for a little kid,” he said.
“You never think it’s going to happen here and all of a sudden, in a tiny little town it comes here,” Akins said.
