TAOS, N.M. (KRQE) – Four decades in the making, a New Mexico mystery has finally come to a close. Two paintings that were ripped off the walls and stolen from a northern New Mexico museum in the 80s returned home Friday. “It’s amazing to have these paintings back in Taos. It’s something that we never imagined would happen. To see them here is surreal. We’re pleased that they’re back,” said Juniper Leherissey, executive director of the Hardwood Museum of Art.

RIO RANCHO, N.M. (KRQE) – A high school baseball player accused of peeing in an opposing team’s water jug is no longer facing criminal charges. According to the district attorney, what the player did was not a crime. “In New Mexico, battery consists of the unlawful touching of another person in a rude and insolent manner. So, in this case, we don’t have any touching of another person,” said Chief Deputy District Attorney Jessica Martinez with the 13th Judicial DA’s Office.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Albuquerque city leaders are considering new rules to help hold rental landlords’ feet to the fire over hidden costs and complicated contracts.
