Angel Dozal, 20, was fatally shot on April 19, 2018, in Albuquerque’s Barelas neighborhood near Fourth Street and Atlantic Avenue. Officers who responded that day found Dozal deceased and another man with a gunshot wound to the leg. Two firearms were recovered and three people were interviewed at the scene, though police did not initially say whether arrests had been made or a motive established.

Investigators pursued the case for years; by October 2024 a fourth suspect had been taken into custody in connection with the 2018 killing. Authorities have not publicly released the suspects’ identities or the specific charges, and details about a motive remain limited. The police continue to work the investigation as the legal process moves forward.

If anyone knew Angel, witnessed the shooting, or has information about the people involved, please share what you know with the Albuquerque Police Department.
