Anibal Salguero, a 31-year-old Hispanic/Latino man, was shot and killed in Clovis, New Mexico, on July 9, 2023. He had just finished a roofing job and was sitting in a vehicle with a coworker in the 900 block of West Ninth Street when an armed robbery turned violent and Salguero was fatally shot. The Clovis Police Department opened a homicide investigation immediately.
Within days investigators arrested three people in connection with the killing. On July 12, 2023, authorities charged 25-year-old Alex Zapata with murder and took Jainene Velasquez and Destry Gonzales into custody for their alleged roles. A second primary suspect was later identified and an arrest warrant was issued for 32-year-old Cordney Cooper in January 2024; Cooper was subsequently taken into custody in Portales.
If anyone witnessed the robbery or was in the area of West Ninth Street that evening, please come forward with information that could help clarify what happened.
