The Commission received 13 submissions. One submission was disqualified due to an applicant not residing in the district. Monday’s special meeting was called in order to choose from applicants and make nomination to Governor Michelle Lujan-Grisham. Each applicant was given four minutes to speak before the Commission.

When police arrived, they found 33-year-old Kyle Martinez inside the apartment with multiple stab wounds. Medics transported Martinez to San Juan Regional Medical Center where he remains in critical condition.

The call came in to dispatch around 5:49 p.m. after a family saw the person, identified as 51-year-old David Lee of Shiprock, floating in the river near Boyd Park. Farmington and San Juan County fire departments, Farmington police and the San Juan County Sheriff’s Office worked to locate Lee.

Trails on the north side of the river from Berg Park West to the Animas Bridge (furthest bridge to the east) are closed. Trails on the south side of the river will remain open. The closure is a precaution in anticipation of rising water levels over the next several days.

High flows in the Animas and San Juan Rivers have created dangerous conditions. The rivers are both running higher, and faster than recent memory. Faster running water has the potential to make the bank unstable. Be careful around the riverbank. Even experienced swimmers can be overpowered by the extreme river current. Stay out of the main channel during periods of high flow. Both rivers are deeper than normal and likely to be over your head. In shallow areas, the water could still knock you off your feet.

Eagles Kassanavoid was located several hours later at a residence in west Farmington and taken into custody after a brief foot pursuit.
