In the early hours of March 22, 2026, a drive-by shooting struck a private party at an event center at Grand and Calhoun Street in Clovis, New Mexico. Partygoers had been celebrating just after midnight when gunfire was directed from the street into the building. Twenty-one-year-old Lyrasha Haskins was found dead at the scene; four other people were wounded, including a 17-year-old girl flown to a Lubbock, Texas, hospital for urgent care.

Clovis Police Department’s Major Crimes Unit opened a homicide investigation and recovered 22 bullet casings near the event center. Information led investigators to a State Street residence where eight attendees were located and detained for questioning. A SWAT team search of the house turned up four pistols and a rifle that had been converted to fully automatic; three people were arrested on weapons charges. Police say the ammunition from that residence did not match the casings recovered at the shooting scene, and no arrests have been announced in connection with Lyrasha Haskins’s homicide.

Anyone who was at the party or who has information about the shooting or the suspects is asked to contact the Clovis Police Department.
