Louisiana woman fatally shot LAS CRUCES — Authorities in New Mexico have identified a Louisiana woman who was fatally shot after she allegedly broke into a Las Cruces home. Dona Ana County Sheriff’s officials say 37- year-old Heather Denean Bubrig of New Orleans was pronounced dead at the scene Tuesday night. Bubrig was a passenger in a pickup truck driven by her 51-year-old boyfriend, who told authorities she had just been discharged from a Texas mental health facility. The couple was traveling on Interstate 10 when the man pulled over and Bubrig exited the vehicle and tried to walk into traffic before fleeing. A homeowner called 911 to say the woman had entered his home, claiming that someone was trying to kill her. Sergeant gets nearly 17 years SAN ANTONIO — An Army sergeant and military recruiter in South Texas must serve nearly 17 years in prison in a scheme to funnel dozens of assault weapons to a Mexican drug cartel. Julian Prezas was sen- tenced Thursday in San Antonio. The 37-year-old San Antonio man in December pleaded guilty to five counts of making a false statement during the pur- chase of firearms and one count related to attempting to export guns to Mexico. Investigators say Prezas in 2015 conspired with several other soldiers to illegally purchase more than 40 assault rifles. Three co- defendants received proba- tion. An attorney for Prezas has said his client is a decorated veteran who misunderstood gun sale laws.

ALBUQUERQUE — How quickly momentum can change. Entering Friday, the Clovis Wildcats were an 11- point win away from taking second place in District 2- 6A. Leaving Friday, they’re in fourth place and on the playoff bubble following a 27-0 defeat to La Cueva at F.M. Wilson Stadium. The loss probably doesn’t knock the Wildcats (5-5, 1-3) out of the play- offs for the first time since the 2001 season, but it certainly WILDCATS increases the chances they’ll play a first-round game away from the friendly confines of Leon Williams Stadium.
