Residents of a previously serene Albuquerque neighborhood are criticizing city officials' response to the surge in crime allegedly related to renters that built an underground bunker.
The neighbors say there was a rise in stolen cars, stolen packages, and other nuisances after the newest renters moved in. Some of the incidents have been caught on video.
'There was concrete. There were bricks inside. It was pretty large. That was built into the backyard of the house that led into the joining arroyo."*
The Esquibels have been in the neighborhood for several years but noticed the change in the last years. "We moved here originally because we loved it." Alandra Esquibel said to KOAI-TV. We thought the location was great."
