74 Year Old Entrepreneur Deters Kidnapping and Kills Two

Borderland Beat Submitted by "ZAC"

Note: Major update on the ZAC post of  this afternoon.  New death toll and CDG Mantas 


A Zacatecas 74-year-old businessman deterred the attack by an armed command trying to deprive him of liberty, killing two of his attackers.


Fresnillo, Zacatecas.- Early this morning, to repel an attempted abduction, a 74 year old businessman from Fresnillo, Alfonso del Cojo Sucunza, killed 2 of his attackers and wounded others at his house door in the center of Fresnillo, (about 720 kilometers north of México City).
At 4:20 am, when the aggression happened, State police maintained an intense security operation on the premises of the Electoral Institute of the State of Zacatecas, 450 meters away from the house.
 
At the corner of the street where the kidnapping attempt occurred, is the Federal Electoral Institute (IFE) that until some days ago - prior to the elections - ­was guarded by elements of the Mexican army.
The bodies of the alleged kidnappers were removed from the place by colleagues, who were traveling in two pick up trucks, of which the State Attorney General said they already have some information about its characteristics.
The businessman was transferred to the General Hospital of Fresnillo, where he was treated of 5  bullet wounds in abdomen and legs, medical personnel reported that a hemorrhage in the femoral artery was controlled and he is out of danger.
Outside the hospital there is surveillance of the State police, while at his home the State Attorney General of Justice and experts are still working and traffic has been closed in the area.
Del Cojo Sucunza has family ties with José Bonilla Robles, former Senator of the Republic and radio broadcaster, who is father of Adolfo Bonilla Gómez, current Federal Congressman, Del Cojo is also a relative of José Haro de la Torre, whose election as local Congressman for Fresnillo was confirmed also early this morning.


One would think this brave man would be called out as a hero.  If anyone is wondering what the Governor of Zacatecas is thinking, don’t plan on having any word from him soon, most likely never. 


It is probably also safe to bet against any hospital visit, even though the governor is in the same city as Alfonso lays in a hospital fighting for his life.
So far neither the State Government nor Zacatecas Gov. Miguel Alonso has issued a statement regarding the case of  Alfonso.

In his Twitter account @ miguelalonsogob  only made ​​mention of their participation in the funeral of Rufino Solis Campos.

“Today we say goodbye to a great friend, Rufino Solis Campos " with a posthumous tribute at the Museum Zacatecano "the governor tweeted at 10:39 hours on Thursday, yesterday at 20:18 hours, he wrote;

“My deepest condolences to family and friends of my dear friend Rufino Solis Campos" nothing about Alfonso

  8. why is Alfonso del Cojo allowed to have guns in his house. He should be arrested and given one year in prison for each bullet he posseses. He should know it's againts the law in Mexico to own high powered weapons.( sarcasm) Maybe if regular citizens had the right to bear arms, mexico wouldn't be so corrupt...

  9. so he is a fucking mexican bussinessman and he's able to carry weapons?, isn't that illegal in Mexico? or is it just bussinessmen are allowed to, and if so what about the rest of the citizens? ho! wait... 80% of mexicans live in poverty so they wouldn't be able to aquire decent weaponry anyways right, right!

    i don't see how people would find this guy a hero, to me heroism would be for common people to rise up and take on corrupt polititians and that way end corruption, but wait, most mexicans make ends meet on a day to day basis so they only have time work to put what little bit of food they can on the table, the 80%, the rest just don't plain give a fuck, are part of the corrupt system, bussinessmen like this guy, who do not give a shit unless something happens to them, right?, right!

  15. This would be the outcome more often than not, if citizens in Mexico were allowed to protect themselves. Instead, only the wealthy and the criminals have the guns, and not those people who are the every day victims.

    It does not cost money, it is not like the us. It is very little to began a target club and can be done on any rural property. This is how citizens get around a long process. But one can apply an purchase from the military armory, the only "seller". The caliber is much inferior to what cartels have, but at least it is a defense.

    In states like Zac and Coahuila many people have guns as they are hunters and ranchers.

    So it would be better if you educate yourself to what the reality is.

    1. Your right, my uncle likes to hunt dears, those ugly looking pigs who stay out in the wild and specially the wolfs. he kill every dam wolf we could, they kill are sheep, dogs and new born. He has many type of weapons. All are semi automatic. Your not allow to have automatic weapons.

  23. Chivis is right, in small towns and communities many people have guns, it´s legal, mostly shotguns for hunting and getting rid of harmful animals in ranches and farms, that´s why in press articles you always read about "weapons of exclusive use of the military", meaning assault weapons, high caliber guns, grenade launchers, etc, those are illegal to own, not the rest.

    I didn´t know about shooting clubs, but I believe the legislation makes it easier for farmers and ranchers to own guns and is more strict for others, maybe that´s where the shooting clubs come in to play?

  24. Es una pena la realidad de Mexico....( y del mundo entero) hace demasiado tiempo que ni por equivocacion ha sido la gente correcta la que ocupa los puestos mas importantes para lograr un mejor pais, un major mundo. De que manera tienen vendida la vida delos mexicanos a cambio de que... es una verguenza que la misma gente tenga que velar por su seguridad, pena les deberia de dar a todos los que de algun modo tienen que ver con la seguridad del pasi, desde altos mandos hasta los mismos efectivos que juran proteger a la patria y a sus ciudadanos y se dejan manejar por seres totalmente malignos. Gente como Don Alfonso merecen todo el respeto y reconocimiento al valor y al coraje de no dejarse someter por malandros a pesar de que el gobierno los deja actuar a sus hanchas... no existe otra explicacion... todo mundo sabe donde se encuentran los malos... menos los gobernantes del mundo... DIOS, no tarde tu justicia Divina.
