CLOVIS, N.M. (KRQE) – The Clovis Police Department is investigating a shooting that left one man dead on Friday morning, August 4. Police say officers were sent to a home on Dawn Loop just before 10 a.m. after a call of a break-in. The caller told police that a male had broken in, and when officers arrived, they found a male who had been shot and killed.
Police have identified the male victim as 39-year-old Javier Jimenez Jr. In May 2022, Jiminez was arrested for criminal trespassing at the same residence. The person who shot him, 28-year-old Alexandra Romero, was living in the residence and was in the process of getting a restraining order against Jiminez.
Investigators say they are continuing to process evidence, but at this time, no charges have been filed. Police say, “All persons involved in this incident have been located and are cooperating with the investigation.”
