    A man was sentenced to 27 years in prison in a shooting that left one dead and another injured, New Mexico officials said.

    In June 2024, Jamil Lewis was with two friends when they ran into brothers, Gerald Ibuado and Edward Ibuado, in Albuquerque, the Bernalillo County district attorney said on Facebook.

    Gerald Ibuado punched a man who owed him money, and his brother “rushed over to help,” prosecutors said.

    That’s when Lewis pulled out a gun and fired, fatally shooting Gerald Ibuado and wounding his brother, officials said.

    Lewis was arrested a month later on unrelated charges when he was accused of trying to steal a holster, officials said.

    He pleaded guilty in June to murder, aggravated battery and being a felon with a gun, officials said.
