ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - Residents of a neighborhood are breathing a sigh of relief Sunday morning.
A house filled with trash and squatters using drugs, is being red tagged.
Police were called to this house near Coors and Atrisco Saturday morning after a neighbor called saying a car was blocking his driveway.
A fight was going on inside when officers arrived.
According to police, that's when Asha Baca, 30, ran inside to shoot up heroin.
The investigation that followed revealed 10 people were living inside the house, in filthy conditions.
“It’s pretty dirty, officers had to open up doors windows just to air it out because it was that bad inside,” Sgt. Tyrone Chambers said.
City officials red-tagged the house saying the home had no running water, which meant no usable toilets.
A total of three people were arrested at the home.
