Samuel Gutierrez was 17 when he and a friend, Jeremy Trujillo, were shot in a drive-by attack while walking home in southwest Albuquerque on March 22, 2012. Both young men were killed in a neighborhood described in reports as having gang activity, though investigators have not produced solid evidence directly linking the killings to any gang.

Video footage of the shooting exists, and Albuquerque police have periodically revisited the investigation, but no arrests have been announced. The probe has been hampered by a lack of cooperative witnesses, and family and friends continue to seek answers.

If anyone remembers that night or has information that could help bring Samuel’s killers to justice, please come forward to the Albuquerque Police Department.
