As the investigation into Saturday’s deadly shooting at a motorcycle rally in Red River continues, authorities warned that they’ll be conducting a law enforcement blitz throughout the rest of the holiday weekend.
New Mexico State Police Chief Tim Johnson said Sunday that law enforcement will be stopping people to enforce even minor infractions as investigators work to track down anyone associated with the shooting.
“For everyone, there will be zero tolerance from this point forward,” Johnson said at a news conference. “That is traffic violations for 1 mile an hour over, seat belts, jaywalking. We are going to stop and talk to everyone if they violate any law — traffic or criminal.”
Johnson said officers will run everyone stopped through the National Crime Information Center to check for outstanding warrants.
“Anybody with warrants or anybody who can be arrested will be arrested,” he said.
