Metro 2 Family Relief Fund

Albuquerque, NM – On July 16 at approximately 7:20 pm, the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office helicopter Metro 2 crashed just outside of Las Vegas, NM. The helicopter and its crew were assisting with a wildfire in the area, providing bucket drops and other air logistics needs to fire crews on the ground. There were no survivors. We are heartbroken and seek to raise funds to be distributed between the families equally.

This fundraiser is being organized by the Bernalillo County Deputy Sheriff's Association (www.bcdsa.org), of which all of the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office were or once members. If you are nervous about validity, please see the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office social media pages or the Bernalillo County Website. Both platforms will direct you to this GoFundMe page.

All funds will be given directly to the four families for grieving expenses, family and educational needs.

With sincere appreciation, deputies, sergeants and lieutenants from the BCDSA thank you for supporting our brothers and their families.
