THE HAZZARD RANGE BULLETIN
In the press release from Hazzard Range County Sheriff’s Office, Executive Assistant Public Information Officer Shelby Burk, on behalf of Undersheriff Ron Bayerd.
On Sunday, Nov 30th, 2025, at approximately 3:45 PM, Hazzard Range County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Lance Mead attempted a traffic stop on a 2009 Ford Crown Victoria near NM 168 and Neon Moon Road. The driver did not stop and fled north on NM 168 toward the townsite of Sparta. As the Pursuit entered Sparta, a passenger in the vehicle fired shots, hitting a pickup parked in front of Sparta Auto Parts. Deputies terminated their pursuit, but shortly thereafter resumed it as the driver drove east on the sidewalk of Main St.
Deputies pursued the vehicle onto the Old Mexico Ave Bridge. Shots were fired from the car, and more shots were fired as the vehicle smashed through the fence of the old magsum mine on Lobo Mt Rd. Seconds later, the driver lost control and rolled twice.
Three male suspects were located in the vehicle. One 25-year-old and one 18-year-old were declared deceased on scene. One juvenile was critically injured, and another juvenile was arrested a short distance away.
Burk noted this is an active investigation by the Sheriff’s Office and State Police, but the vehicle in question was stolen locally. The four suspects were not county residents. Questions were directed to the NM 14th Judicial District Attorney's Office, District Attorney Patrick Flrod, who declined to comment.

The good old days of the community general store.
The Holland General Store in Dawson, West Virginia, was a community staple for nearly six decades. The building itself is a testament to the craftsmanship of the early 1900s, featuring traditional wood German siding, 2/2 windows, a standing seam tin roof, a front stepped parapet wall, and a recessed storefront.
Inside the store, one could find all sorts of essentials. Opened in 1901, it was managed by Pank Holland from 1915 until the late-1940s, after which Robert Holland and his wife carried on the family business, operating it until its closure circa 1960. Customers would come to the Holland General Store not just to shop but to catch up on the latest news and gossip. It was a hub of social activity, a place where people could connect and bond over a shared sense of community.
Its legacy lives on, reminding us of a simpler time when a trip to the local general store was a cherished part of daily life.
