An evening at an Albuquerque Isotopes game on September 6, 2023, ended in tragedy when 11-year-old Froylan Villegas was fatally shot as his family drove home. Froylan sat in the front passenger seat of a white Dodge truck driven by his 23-year-old cousin Tatiana Villegas; his mother and infant brother were in the back. Near the intersection of Avenida Cesar Chavez and University Boulevard the truck was ambushed by gunfire from occupants of a black Dodge Durango. At least 14 rounds were fired; one shooter stood through the Durango’s sunroof.

Froylan was killed and Tatiana was critically wounded and left paralyzed from the chest down. Froylan’s mother and infant escaped physical harm though projectiles narrowly missed the baby’s car seat. Detectives say the Durango’s occupants, later identified as 22-year-old Jose Romero and 21-year-old Nathan Garley, had been aiming for another man after an earlier altercation at the game and mistakenly targeted the Villegas family’s truck. Romero and Garley were arrested and charged in the case.

Was anyone in the area that night who saw the Durango or remembers hearing the shooting near Avenida Cesar Chavez and University Boulevard?
