CNN) -- Eighteen people were killed in separate shootings throughout Mexico's Ciudad Juarez on Saturday, marking it as one of the bloodiest days this year in the nation's most violent city, officials said Sunday.

In one incident, a family of seven was slaughtered while they were outside their home in the southeastern part of the city, Chihuahua State Attorney General's Office spokesman Carlos Gonzalez said.

"Among [the seven killed] were two brothers who we believe were targeted," Gonzalez said.

Local newspaper El Diario de Juarez reported that five of the bodies were found inside a car and another two bodies were found lying in the street. In another gruesome incident, an unidentified dismembered body was found wrapped in a blanket inside a bag, Gonzalez said.

Six American citizens gunned down in Mexico in one week. Two of them students who had just crossed the bridge into Juarez and hardly any coverage on the news, not even Fox news. Why?

The same goes for the War. We have two wars going on and hardly any coverage whats the matter they don't have any correspondents to cover it, they lose their balls or what? All we get is politics and president Dumbass going to India.

With the shootouts this week in Reynosa, Matamoros, and Juarez, another mayor murder, and the “tourists” and bad guys slaughter in Acapulco, the civil war in the borderlands and Mexico has probably near 100 deaths this week alone. It is really getting to be a big insurrection.
