BAGDAD, Arizona — The latest developments in the crash of an F-16 fighter in northwestern Arizona. (All times local):

Luke Air Force Base officials say a student pilot from Taiwan is feared dead after an F-16 fighter jet crashed in northwestern Arizona.
They say crews were still looking for the man late Thursday afternoon, and signs indicate that he didn't survive.
