UNM Police search apartment of Lobo cornerback

The UNM Police Department exercised a warrant to search the Lobo Village apartment of Nias Martin, a junior cornerback for the UNM football team, on February 21.

While no charges have yet been filed, an alleged sexual assault and kidnapping incident occurred between Martin and a 19-year-old female student who also attends UNM. The 19-year-old reported the incident on Feb. 20, with her father and sister.

The woman stated in a police report that she had previously been in a relationship with Martin, but that the two were no longer together. The woman said she had agreed to go over to his Lobo Village apartment, and that they would talk about having sex.
