David R. Gracia-Dominguez, 42, was fatally shot in the early hours of January 18, 2021, near Chico Road and Rhode Island Street in northeast Albuquerque. Known to friends and family as Chilendrina, he was born June 3, 1978, in Ciudad Guerrero, Chihuahua, Mexico, and moved to Albuquerque in adolescence.
After the shooting, an image was released showing a suspect fleeing the scene as a passenger in a red or maroon sedan, but that individual has not been identified and no arrests have been announced. David is survived by his wife, son David Andres, his parents, a sister and a brother. He was remembered as noble, kind and hardworking, with a love of reading, writing, singing and movies, and a close bond with his mother and son.
The Albuquerque Police Department is asking anyone with information to come forward. Did anyone in northeast Albuquerque see a red or maroon sedan in the area that night?
