ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- Another New Mexico marine has been killed fighting in Iraq.

Gov. Bill Richardson's office confirms that Lance Cpl. Emilian Sanchez, of the Santa Ana Pueblo, has died in Iraq.

Sanchez belonged to the 4th Reconnaissance Battalion, out of San Antonio, Texas.

He died in combat sometime this weekend in Iraq, along with the more than 25 other U.S. troops killed Saturday and Sunday.

At the state Capitol, the governor held a moment of silence for Sanchez just before noon, Tuesday.
