ROSWELL, N.M. (AP) — Dozens of firefighters from multiple agencies are battling a grass and brush fire that forced the evacuation of a state park, one home and other structures in southeastern New Mexico.

John White, University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) garden curator and certified arborist, strolls through the Demonstration Garden at the Las Cruces Utilities (LCU) Administration building to check the growth of trees. He’s seen the slow and steady changes in the trees, but visitors to the annual LCU Spring Stroll on Wednesday, May 22nd, will see some extra developments to the garden, too: the berm to catch rainfall for natural irrigation in the garden and a new shade structure ideal for presentations.

  WASHINGTON (AP) — A Republican congressman from Michigan on Saturday became the first member of President Donald Trump's party on Capitol Hill to accuse him of engaging in "impeachable conduct" stemming from special counsel Robert Mueller's lengthy investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

But Rep. Justin Amash stopped short of calling on Congress to begin impeachment proceedings against Trump, which many Democrats have been agitating for.

For the second day in a row, a structure fire in Las Cruces has been attributed to a resident smoking a cigarette while on supplemental oxygen.

Saturday’s fire occurred at the Budget Inn, 2255 W. Picacho Ave. A Las Cruces Fire Department crew was passing by when they noticed smoke coming from one of the rooms of the Budget Inn. The crew went to investigate and found an apartment fully engulfed with a 65-year-old woman who had already evacuated. She was transported to a local hospital and then to a burn center in Lubbock for advanced care.
