Guerrero: 7 Police Killed 2 Wounded Suspect LFM

Chivis Martinez Borderland Beat

 
In Guerrero state six off-duty federal agents and a security officer were killed as they sat in the "Hotel Las Vegas Bar”. Authorities said armed men arrived in several trucks and burst into a bar in Ciudad Altamirano and with AK47s opened fire late Friday.  7.62X3 Caps from AK47s  were found at the scene. 
According to initial investigations, the murder could be related to the arrest of one of the members of the La Familia Michoacana cartel that took place last week.
Both states on Mexico's western coast have seen a surge of violence in recent years attributed to drug cartels.
The policemen were identified as Edwin Lopez Casanova, Hector Escribano Escribano, José Benito Velazquez, Jose Alejandro Mariano Juanchi Anwar Ortega Santamaría, José Fernando Aparicio Ocasa Alcántar and Samuel Nieto, assigned to the security of the region of Tierra Caliente.

Two elements of the Federal Police, Samuel Aparicio Fernando Nieto Moscosa and Alcantara,  were wounded by gunfire in the attack.  They were taken to the Clinic of the Americas and listed in critical condition.  No prognosis was reported.

Note: there are reports of 7 police killed and 2 injured however there are also reports of 4 police and 3 civilians killed and 2 police injured.  I suppose it makes little difference I simply wanted you to know that there is conflicting reports.  Another version is 3 officers dead, 4 civilians and 2 injured officers. 

There is also another version that came several hours after the news broke that 2 officers were getting money from an ATM and the gunman jumped from their trucks upon which the officers ran into the bar, they were unarmed, and the gunmen followed and opened fired.  I find that version very unlikely.

  2. Are they that stupid? Why they can even be "off-duty"? Hitmen are driving in packs, carrying automatic weapons, hunting high profile police officers who are just strolling the streets with their flip flops and polo shirts. Just ridiculous.

  17. honest cops? I mean really... why would any sane human want to be a cop in mexico knowing they will be murdered or told to work for the cartels or be murdered. I dont understand how they keep finding people to join the police force.

  20. The federal government is to blame. Obviously, they can not be everywhere, all of the time . They should make it clear to criminals that targeting police will bring an overwhelming federal response. When the government allows their own to be killed without repercussions, the killers take note and continue. I know every life is sacred but the Authorities should be protected enough to protect the rest.
