Gregory James Greenawalt, 38, was shot in the chest in the parking lot of the Uptown Bar and Grill in Albuquerque after an on‑premises fight on the night of September 29, 2006. Friends had been inside the bar where a band drew a crowd; tensions escalated and security ejected several people. Minutes later, witnesses said Greenawalt approached another man from the dispute, Marvin Gomez. Investigators say Gomez produced a shotgun and fired. Greenawalt was taken to University of New Mexico Hospital and died that same night.

Police said Gomez fled but was arrested the following weekend and charged with murder; bond was set at $250,000. In 2008 a jury convicted Gomez of second‑degree murder and tampering with evidence. Trial testimony described a scuffle, ejections by security, and an encounter near Gomez’s vehicle; Gomez asserted self‑defense and said he retrieved a shotgun because he saw Greenawalt moving toward him with something in his hand. A knife was found near Greenawalt’s body, though bystanders did not report seeing a weapon in his hand before the shot.

In 2011 the New Mexico Court of Appeals reversed those convictions and remanded the case for a new trial, finding improper impeachment questioning at the first trial. Does anyone have details about the scene that night or remembered seeing what Greenawalt was carrying?
