Nightclub attack in Mazatlan leaves 6 dead





Violence continues unabated in the port city of Mazatlan in spite of the presence of hundreds of military, federal and state police reinforcements guarding the Carnaval festivities.

Tuesday morning 6 people attending a private concert in the Antares nightclub were shot and killed by unknown gunmen during an attack that occurred at approximately 5:45am as a crowd was emptying into the parking lot. The Antares nightclub is located on the Avenida Del Mar seaside promenade.

At least 20 more partygoers were wounded by gunfire, many reportedly in serious condition in local hospitals. Among the dead were one female and a promising young musician, Alberto “El Junior” Lizarraga.

According to witnesses, the masked gunmen armed with assault rifles arrived in two pickups and proceeded to mow down the crowd gathered in the parking lot. Antares staff said that the event had just ended.

A large contingent of Army troops and Marines backed up by a helicopter were deployed but were unable to detain any of the suspected murderers.

movimiento alterado singer Gerardo Ortiz

The headlining singer during the event was Gerardo Ortiz and his band. Many posts on citizen’s forums blasted the artist and mentioned that the tragedy was inevitable with the audience that these entertainers attract.



Police in Sinaloa are killed with impunity

With the slaughter of seven State Ministerial Police (PME) officers this past Sunday in the municipality of Guasave the total number of municipal and state police officers murdered in Sinaloa this year has risen to 19. The perpetrators of these crimes have so far gone unpunished as no suspects have been arrested.

Sinaloa’s Governor, Mario Lopez Valdez encountered the rage of relatives of the state policemen murdered in Sunday’s ambush during funeral services held for 5 of the 7 men in the state capitol of Culiacan Tuesday morning.

“He wanted to be a lawyer, look where his dreams lie now” expressed one of the mourners, “You are surrounded by corrupt officials and you all don’t give a damn, you don’t give a damn. There are people around you who protect the narcos……and now our men are dead”

The Governor’s words of condolences, of sharing the pain, grief and anger with the families of the deceased, were met with even more recriminations about corruption in government institutions, of the deficiency of their equipment and weapons, of the long hours and the lack of guarantees in the practice of their profession.

  12. They sound like HOES if you ask me. MOVIMIENTO ALTERADO singing about other MEN. I would understand 1 corrido but mostly all the songs are about Chapo, Mayo, M-1, Macho Prieto etc. That's a little too much dick-riding the same crew. Don't you think? Whatever happened to normal Mexican music like Vicente Fernandez and Joan Sebestian. No ahorra puro maricon besandole los pies al pinche enano del CHAPO. This Gerardo Ortiz character would be somebody's girlfriend if he ever went to jail...lol-lol-lol

  14. well they have to sing about the Sinaloa Cartel because if they start singing about the Zetas then they die. It's music and its the only way they can get their message to out to the foot soldiers fighting there war. Like one hitman said, when they asked for reinforcements they got a corrido played over the radio to encourage them. 18 is good but you're not a player si no es 21 year old bottle of whiskey...

  15. I have to say, I like corridos and have been guilty of listening to Gerardo Ortiz and all the other young and upcomers. Muscia de arrangque, movimiento alterado what ever you want call it or categorize it as.

    It has gotten old though and it's a trend of music that will pass. I have to admit that some of the songs are promoting violence and simple as that. Every club you go to know from Califas to Chicago, this music is in. The narco lifestyle is appealing for many and big money maker in the club scene in the United States.

    It is similar to hardcore rap that glorifies drug dealers lifestyles. It's the difference between rap and sleazy rap. You have corridos that are actual corridos and then you have narco corridos that just mention repetitive lyrics. Artists like Los Tigres, Tucanes, Los Hurances, Los Canelos, Chalino Sanchez, El Monarcha, El Lobito and old school cats like that they actually have meaning behind their music. Some of their corridos do speak of narcos but it's like a small tale in a song that just doesn't bring up the same thing. Cuerno, pechera y escuadra. Sh*t everyone in their corrifos right now has to mention those three things. I am not a hyprocite but some people can listen to music and just take it as music when others think they are actually living that corrido. Listen to the music but don't think your scarface when your jamming to it, it's the difference between un buen cerebro y otro que esta pudrido.

  16. narco corridos are not the cause of the violence its an offspring, banning it will do nothing but increase its popularity, besides as long as they themselves Don't claim to be a killer and trafficking drugs, they are more believable than most rappers, how many rappers rap about themselves personally shooting people and selling drugs, yeah right! like lil wayne is out there on the street shooting at people.

  17. Ortiz has a badas gun, if you dont like the music dont listen to it and shut up. I listen to gerardo ortiz, luis sylvestere and los bukanes de culiacan and others. And i dont kill or kidnap people. There singers doing there job, and have no part in what happens or what takes place. Saludos desde the chi town

  18. Zetas r there becouse of the traidors of the beltranes. They didnt force there way in. Theres cds in Tam. Ask the zetas how there holding up in Durango.(a cds stronghold) Ask them why they have to hide and how many got killed for kidnapping a mafiosos son. Theve brought kidnapping and extortion to my state. The areas were cds or juarez operate are calmer and no one abuses the public. No ones a saint though

  21. Gerardo Ortiz should try going to Tamaulipas or Veracruz with his "EL Chapo" bull.crap music and if he is lucky he will come out alive.Stop praising DRUG LORDS,that will get you killed and Mr.Ortiz was probably close to death.

    The Zetas under Z-40 and the Beltranes are the ones heating up the plazas in Sinaloa. There are people still loyal to the Beltranes in Sinaloa. There is a video made from the Zetas and Beltranes where they are interrogating a guy from Gente Nueva in Mazatlan. The video:

    How can they blame the music??? I listen to Narco-Corridos. And i don't go around killing innocent people. People who want to blame the corridos are the most ignorant people. Just trying to find a scape goat. How about you blame the parents who didn't do their jobs. Puro Movimiento Alterado!!!

  26. You guys that are blaming the music and Gerardo Ortiz for attracting violence are a bunch of idiots that don't know shit except for what is reported in an objective way. If you don't know clubs in MZT have to end by 4am, which it did. However, during carnaval and weekends it is common to see a group of people hanging around parking lots partying and having bands play for them. That's exactly what happened that night so now you guys are informed of the true details. You guys are really fucken lame blaming music instead at looking at the causes behind all the violence.

  29. I'm not blaming the culo-corridos for the violence. I'm saying they're lowlifes for making money off others misery and for glorifying these narco assholes.
    You guys flipped the fuck out over a stupid videogame about cops hunting down narcos, but singing (literally) the praises of the the same assholes is acceptable to you? What's the difference between a game and a song glorifying this shit? You people are seriously confused.

  30. This is great! Hopefully the begin taking out all of these artist that believe they can freely sing about these drug lords and prop them up as heros. There is a price to pay for this, just as Valentin Elizalda and El Shaka.
    CDS has been heating up just about every corner of Mexico, such as Nuevo Laredo, Chihuahua, Tijuana, etc. etc.. I hate to say it but I think its good that the violence is nearing El chapo now, maybe this will bring some pressure on him to tone it down face the consequences.
