Dominic Melendez Accused of Murder

01/26/2026

Audio of Buffalo Police Recording.

This is audio of Buffalo Police's response to what is described as a chaotic situation that turned out to be the homicide of a woman at Buffalo's Pine Harbor Apartments at 10 Seventh St in Buffalo (referred to as "10 7" by BPD dispatch) on January 24, 2026.

Police can be heard shortly after the call-out attempting to manage the incident scene and then swarming the area in a manhunt for alleged suspect Dominic Melendez. The audio does not capture the actual apprehension but reports of his arrest began to appear in area profit media outlets the following day.

Days from Sentencing on Drug Charge

BuffScan's cursory online research indicates that Melendez was just days away from appearing in court to face sentencing on what appears to be a narcotics charge just before allegedly committing the stabbing, effectively though assumed, checking himself into prison for life. It is interesting to note that the transcript of these proceedings indicate that Melendez was released without bail, failed to show up for court, then later either turned himself in or was arrested before being released on his own recognizance a second time.

Court record shows Melendez was about to be sentenced. Was out on second-time-release-without-bail at the time he allegedly stabbed woman to death.

On Monday 1/26 his online court records updated to reflect a separate murder charge.

Murder case added.

At the time of this writing there are enough online leads to name the victim in this case but until officially cited by authorities BuffScan will withhold these leads.
