Nicolas Elijah Montoya, 21, was shot and killed in Roswell, New Mexico, on March 29, 2024. He was found with gunshot wounds and died despite medical efforts; a nearby vehicle’s windshield was also damaged in the incident. Reports say Montoya was a passenger in a vehicle when he was first shot and was later driven to another location where he was shot again.

The Roswell Police Department identified and arrested two local men in connection with the killing. Anfernee D. Romero, 20, was booked on an open count of murder, conspiracy to commit murder, shooting at or from a motor vehicle, and tampering with evidence. De’Andre C. Gonzalez, 19, was booked on charges of conspiracy to commit murder and tampering with evidence. Investigators say the shooting grew out of an ongoing dispute between Montoya and the suspects.

Does anyone in Roswell have information about Montoya, his movements that night, or the dispute that preceded the shooting?
