We are getting new information on a U.S. military member who was killed in Juarez. Holloman Airforce Base says Staff Sgt. David Booher was killed at the Amadeus Strip Club tuesday. He was one of six people shot dead by gunmen. Booher was a member of the 49th Fighter Wing.

We tracked down one of Booher's friends who tell us the 26-year-old had family in Juarez and would visit often. The friend, John Boyle, tells us Booher was set to be deployed either to Iraq or Afghanistan. Boyle says Booher was in Juarez visiting with friends on his day off.

Booher leaves behind a wife and 13-year-old son. A memorial service has been scheduled for next week at Holloman. No one has been arrested in the shooting. The U.S. Air Force Special Investigations Unit is assisting Mexican State Police.
