Military officials say a shooting at a U.S. Air Force base in New Mexico has left one airman dead and another wounded.

The measles outbreak in West Texas has grown to 58 cases as of Tuesday. Eight people in neighboring eastern New Mexico also have been diagnosed with the highly contagious disease.
