A 13-year-old boy, Michael Allen Tubb, was killed in a pre-dawn shooting in downtown Albuquerque on August 18, 2024. Michael was a passenger in a vehicle near 4th Street and Atlantic Avenue at about 3:30 a.m. when the car was struck by gunfire; he was fatally wounded and a 17-year-old female passenger suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to her ankle.

Police identified two suspects in the investigation. Authorities arrested 22-year-old Michael Flores in October 2024 and later arrested 21-year-old Thomas Acee on December 7, 2024, on charges that included an open count of murder, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, and shooting at or from a motor vehicle. Court filings allege Acee fired at least 12 rounds into the vehicle after mistaking it for a different car, and that Flores was the driver of the vehicle from which the shots were fired. Investigators also allege the suspects tried to conceal their involvement by repairing a bullet hole in Flores’ Lexus and planning to sell the car out of state.
