SANTA FE — Two Chamita men believed to be connected to a fatal shooting in Rio Arriba County last month have been arrested and charged after they fled the scene of the March 11 confrontation where one man was killed and three others wounded.
Mario Valdez, 31, and his father, Andrew Valdez, 50, were arrested Monday, more than three weeks after Fernando Martinez was shot to death at the Valdez’s residence in Chamita, a small community north of Española. The two had been eluding police and hiding with family members in Española, according to charging documents filed in Rio Arriba County Magistrate Court.
