RED RIVER, N.M. (KRQE) – The charge has been dropped for a man facing first-degree murder in the May 2023 Red River Motorcycle Rally shooting. In a court document filed late Monday night, the state dismissed the first-degree murder charge against 30-year-old Jacob Castillo. However, the case can be refiled.
On Saturday, May 27, three people were killed, and five others were injured in a shooting that occurred during the 41st Annual Red River Motorcycle Rally. According to New Mexico State Police (NMSP), all eight of the individuals involved in the shooting belong to motorcycle gangs. The two rivaling gangs have been identified as the “Water Dogs” and the “Bandidos.”
Castillo was injured during the conflict and was hospitalized. Following his release from the hospital, he was booked into the Taos County Detention Center and accused of first-degree murder.
