Security forces at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base shot and killed a civilian who attempted to illegally enter the base in a car late at night yesterday.
The incident happened at approximately 2:30 a.m. on Friday morning when a car approached the main gate at the northern side of the base in Tuscon, Arizona. According to a release from the 355th Wing shared with Task & Purpose, the car was moving erratically and the driver failed to identify themselves as they got to base security. The car then crashed into a deployed vehicle barrier, stopping its advance.

Caudle was one of several officers approved for high ranking positions, and was confirmed unanimously.
The Chief of Naval Operations position has been empty since February, when Trump dismissed Adm. Lisa Franchetti from the role.
