A West Texas PGA professional has been shot and killed after he interrupted a burglary while visiting family in Roswell, New Mexico.
Saul Sanchez, 39, the head professional at Yoakum County Golf Club in Denver City, Texas, had returned to Roswell for his sister's funeral and was staying with a friend.
According to local media reports. Sanchez, who was with his wife and two of his three daughters, surprised the burglar, who, authorities said, shot Sanchez in front of his family and fled. The suspect remains at large.
"He worked really, really hard to become a PGA member, and I know he was so excited when that came true for him," said Carlton Blewett, Spring River's director of golf.
A memorial service is scheduled for 1 pm on Monday at the Roswell Convention and Civic Centre.
