July 16th 10:55 pm statement from the Alamogordo Police Department…
“It is with profound sadness that the Alamogordo Police Department announces the passing of Officer Anthony Ferguson who was shot in the line of duty on July 15th, 2023. Officer Ferguson was 41 years old and an eleven-year veteran of Alamogordo Police Department. Officer Ferguson was serving in the Patrol Division as a Field Training Officer. He is survived by his mother, father, four brothers, his daughter and son. He was loved and admired by the citizens of Alamogordo and Officers alike. We would ask for the family’s privacy be respected at this time.
On Saturday, July 15th, 2023, at approximately 0218 hours, Officers from the Alamogordo Police Department attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a vehicle in the area of Puerto Rico Avenue and 9th Street. The vehicle did not stop for Officers and attempted to flee. Officers did not purse the vehicle. Soon after, Officers located the same vehicle involved in a crash in the area of First Street and Delaware Avenue. Officers observed a male subject fleeing the scene on foot. Officers gave chase in which shots were fired.
As a result of the gunfire, Officer Ferguson was originally transported to Gerald Champion Regional Medical Center and was later flown to UMC—El Paso.
The suspect was struck by returned gunfire and his injuries were not life threatening. New Mexico State Police took custody of the suspect for further investigation.
This incident is under investigation by the New Mexico State Police and all questions should be directed to the NMSP Public Information Office.
Chief Kunihiro scheduled a set press conference at 11am, July 17th, 2023, at the Alamogordo Police Department located at 700 Virginia Avenue, Alamogordo, NM 88310.”
Anthony Ferguson is now the first Alamogordo police officer killed in the line of duty since Clint Corvinus was killed during a traffic stop on September 2, 2016.
The death of an officer in Alamogordo has shaken the community to its core and is of great sadness to the community at large. Please respect the privacy of the family and at KALHRadio.org and AlamogordoTowNews.com we ask that social media post be respectful and sensitive to the family and to a community of friends and family mourning this needless tragedy.

as i stated a couple days ago - government by people who couldn't find their fanny with a flashlight and a mirror.
Removing the list from the website doesn't mean the list has been deleted.
I would think that counties and sheriff's offices alike would want the list to remain public.
in this day and age, anyone who imagines that there is any non-partisan election anywhere in this nation - from president to dog catcher - is living in a fairyland. as noted herein, disputes between city & county are exhibit #1 to show the concept is a sham.
I agree with the first part of Mr. Mitchell's statement, there's no such thing as a totally non-partisan elected official.
But I don't agree that disagreements between city & county are proof of concept.
Partly Cloudy , with a high of 90 and low of 70 degrees. Cloudy for the morning, sunny in the afternoon, clear in the evening, cloudy overnight.
May officer Ontiveros rest in peace.
If there's a ****, I hope the devil is enjoying a slow roasted bbq of Dennis Armenta, the scum bag who shot officer Ontiveros multiple times.
From the Durango Herald;
a vital step in preserving our constitution from those who would ignore all forms of checks & balances, and grant de facto authority to persons and groups whose intentions are dismantling our constitutional form of government for their own personal wealth and power.
So you recognize and agree with the reasons that president Trump had for transforming USDS in DOGE as a vital step in preserving our country.
i recognize that trump's bromance and monetary dependence on musk resulted in an entirely unconstitutional transfer of power to an unelected foreign-born billionaire - who personally profited huge sums of money by removing potential legal liabilities facing him.
is that what you're referencing?
Teaching in a low-performing school serving economically disadvantaged populations.
That pretty much covers every teacher in the state.
This executive order does nothing that the governor couldn't have done on her own without an EO.
While the Office of the Governor's website calls this a drought emergency, no where in the actual EO is it called an emergency, nor or emergency powers invoked.
Dolly has started a great program and I commend her efforts.
I know it's been a while since I've bought a children's book, but I don't think $33 per book would be considered a bargain even at today's prices.
I neglected to account for the fact that the program gives up to 12 books a year to children, bringing the cost per book to under $3, a very reasonable price indeed.
My apologies for the omission.
a perfect example of the incompetence of the trump regime - bathwater out - baby out...details - we don't need no stinkin details. the only paint brush they possess must be half a mile wide...government by fools and charlatans.
This was not a notice of action, but a request for compliance.
