ACAPULCO, Mexico — Assailants armed with Kalashnikov rifles shot dead six family members, including three children, as they ambushed a minivan Sunday on a country road in southern Mexico, officials said.
The family was heading home to Mexico City after going to a party in Iguala, about 250 kilometers (155 miles) south of the Mexican capital, said Eduardo Murueta, attorney general of Guerrero state. The assailants attacked the family's Voyager minivan and fled.
Three relatives who survived the attack were treated for injuries at a hospital in Iguala and listed in stable condition, Murueta said.
He said the attack may have been related to a personal dispute or connected to drug trafficking.
Drug-related violence has killed more than 1,000 people across Mexico this year.
Committing CRIMES that Americans won’t commit.
Have a nice day, Pedro!
Welcome to the beauty that is Mexico...and watch in worder as our government continues to encourage this horror to continue to flow across our open borders....
Bad title.
Worse story.
Don’t worry, they love Gringo’s down there ;>)
Acapulco ping!
If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.
Someone has to say it.......family values, blah, blah, blah.
Coming soon to an Amexican barrio near you.
I would venture to guess that the US has exceeded that total for drug-related violence so far this year.
In Acapulco?
You can’t report this, it happened too close to the USA. It won’t make headlines unless it happened in Iraq and Bush failed to prevent it.
This is a cival war!
