Albuquerque, New Mexico — On June 24, 2023, around 3:30 p.m. 41-year-old Mark Peter was found in a car passed out parked at the AutoZone across the street from the market. Albuquerque Police ran the plate of the vehicle and discovered Peter had several felony warrants out for his arrest. Police gave Peter several chances to come out peacefully. Eventually, Peter woke up and took off, so police popped his tires. Minutes later video shows officers running after him into the El Mezquite Market.
Two officers tried to tase Peter, but Peter pulled out a gun and started shooting at them. That’s when officers started shooting at Peter as he shot back. Several people were at checkout lines when Peter ran inside. Peter reportedly fired 13 shots at officers, and they returned 45 shots. Peter later died from his injuries. No one else was injured in the shootout.
Police stated Peter had multiple felony warrants, including one for drug trafficking after he was found by Bernalillo County Sheriff’s deputies in April, passed out in his car. Investigators got a search warrant for the car and found a gun and drugs inside.
