Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 14th of March.
Good morning, Santa Fe.
🚨 Crime
Santa Fe Police arrested three juveniles on Tuesday night at Cottonwood Mobile Home Park after reports of gunshots and reckless driving ended in a car crash; firefighters and county deputies tracked the fleeing teens—two 16-year-olds and a 15-year-old, one carrying a firearm and another holding vehicle keys—and they were booked into Juvenile Detention Center on multiple charges.
A widow and in-laws of Gracen Coon, a 33-year-old trans man shot by a Santa Fe police officer on Sept 22 after a 911 call, filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the city alleging excessive force, negligence and discrimination.
🎭 Culture
Emilio Estevez, known for his role as Billy the Kid in the 1988 Western, announced a new film titled 'Young Guns 3' in New Mexico which will show the outlaw's misadventures.
More details on filming and production are expected soon.
🎓 Education
At a meeting on Thursday the Santa Fe school board outlined its timeline & requirements for hiring a new superintendent, planning a May rollout.
🌲 Environment
Winsor and Tesuque Creek trails near Hyde Park Road will begin tree thinning on Monday as part of a forest management project—workers plan to remove excess trees to improve trail safety and maintain forest health.
People for Native Ecosystems, a group formed over 16 years ago, said they do not support feeding wildlife — even landlocked prairie dogs are best cared for by letting nature provide their food.
🏛️ Government
A court ruled that Terrero landowners cannot block public access to the Pecos River—landowners claimed the decision was needed to protect their properties while recreationists sought to enjoy the river.
The ruling settles a dispute over property rights and public use as both sides adjust their plans.
