Violent crime dominated Albuquerque headlines this week, with multiple fatal stabbings reported across the city, including an Easter morning stabbing death near Copper Ave. NW [4] and a murder charge filed against a man who allegedly killed a neighbor over a fat joke [6]. In a disturbing development, Luis Sanchez — the father accused of brutally killing his 4-year-old and critically injuring his 1-year-old — died by suicide at the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Detention Center [1]. On a lighter note, Unser Blvd. NW made news for an unexpected reason when a massive tumbleweed buildup forced a temporary road closure [10].
