Five Killed in Torreón Bars

Attack leaves nine injured, amongst them a two year old little girl whose mother was shot to death.

Februrary 19, 2011 - Torreón.- Unknown assailants shot up two bars near the Sector Alianza in Torreón, leaving a toll of five dead and at least nine injured, amongst them a two year old girl.

Authorites report that gunmen, dressed in dark clothing with their faces covered, arrived in three vehicles and used long arms in the attack on the Delicias and Montemorelos bars.

The gunmen entered the bars shooting, causing the death of four people and injuring nine, two of them eldery individuals.

Just before 8 p.m., the death toll rose to five with the death of Perla Selene Chaires, 34, a waitress who passed away at the University Hospital. She is survived by her daughter, Melani Selene, who was with her when the attack occurred.
The other four deceased have not been identified.

The injured are Martha Alicia Romero, a 61 year old waitress; Jesús Reyes Guerrero, 57; Melani Selene González, 2 years of age, and Domingo Leyva Espinoza, 50.

Also injured were Jaime Olguín González, 54; Luz María Leal Palacios, 48, and Gerardo Salas Puentes, a 46 year old musician.

Two unidentified men were taken to the Clínica 16, and are reported to be in serious condition.

According to witnesses, one of the men inside the bar returned the gunmen's fire, and was later taken into custody by state agents.

The municipal, federal, and state police, as well as the army were mobilized, but they failed to locate the gunmen.

According to witnesses, some hospitals refused to receive the injured, an allegation that is currently under investigation.

  2. Seems like the government of mexico is purposely '"leading the sheep to the slaughter." It's obvious that they have no reguard for the people. "They put on a SHOW", BUT, the evidence is quite clear. Getting the victims of these WAR to given up their weapons. Then someones who innocent, 'GETS DETAINED'. For what?? Someone said on BB.They don't want any people with 'COURAGE RUNNING AROUND'. It stirs the pot, and any good example can cause a monkey see, monkey do mentality.!!!! Just ONE VOICE WITH COURAGE can sometimes be enough to point to who the REAL criminials are.!!.

  3. 2:22 i thought the exact same thing, the one guy who tried to defend the place will now be treated like a criminal. Since we all know they can't ever catch the people actually responsible. There always ends up being a scapegoat pulled out of nowhere.

No they were most likely going after the person who had the gun because he is part of organized crime himself. How about you think for a second?? Idiots
