On September 20, 2017, Christopher Andrews was found dead in his Albuquerque home from a gunshot wound. The case, which remains unsolved, is still under investigation by the Albuquerque Police Department. There were no signs of forced entry into the home, but a shell casing was found from Andrews' own firearm, which was missing when police arrived.
His blue Subaru sedan was also seen being driven by someone in the days after his death, though the identity of the driver has yet to be determined.
Andrews was remembered fondly by his family, who described him as having a passion for learning and reading. The ongoing investigation has focused on trying to find new leads, including identifying the person last seen with his car. Despite efforts, the case remains open, and authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward.
Albuquerque's police have highlighted this case in their 'Duke City Case Files' series, which features unsolved homicides in the hopes of generating new leads from the public. They continue to seek information to bring closure to Andrews' family.
