Michoacán: 3 Former Autodefensas Executed




By: Julio César Aguirre/Quadratín; Red 113 Michoacán | Translated by Valor for Borderland Beat

Apatzingán, Michoacán, April 23, 2016— Three men traveling onboard a truck and who were about to pull out of a gas station in Cuatro Caminos were massacred by a group of heavily armed men.  The dead were allegedly former autodefensas of the city of Apatzingán, according to reports from the authorities at the scene.  Two of the men died on site while the other one died on the way to the hospital.  The former autodefensas were armed with AK-47’s.

It was learned that around 6:00 hours, a Chevrolet Silverado, with California license plates, was pulling out of the gas station Mafer, located at kilometer 153 in the Siglo XXI Freeway, however only managed to move a few meters before being intercepted by the armed group.  The armed group sprayed them with bullets at close range.


Members of the federal police arrived at the scene and cordoned off the area.  Minutes later, personnel from the Regional Prosecutor’s Office of Apatzingán arrived, who conducted the removal of the bodies and collected dozens of spent shell casings of different calibers.


Even though the corporation recently stopped existing, local people said that the deceased claimed to be members of the Fuerza Rural and that is how they identified themselves with the population, however, RED 113 inquired about the subject to sources of the Ministry of Public Security and they denied that the deceased were discharged from the corporation or ever had belonged to it; they were former autodefensas, they said.

  1. So were these the 'good guys' or bad?I would tend to believe the locals over gov so if they belonged to the Fuerza Rurale then they were probably 'bad guys'.I wonder what group of criminals killed them or was it related in some way maybe retaliation from that other guys that was killed in that area a few days ago with the dispute with the Viagras?Boy thought that was my truck,same colour and around same year Silverado[2002].

  7. The government do not want to credit their rivals for degrading their membership, 'former Autodefensas' do not exist, they became juersaz rurales, and there is the new jente nueva michoacana that want their turf back and are not skeered of "rurales", of viagras, or viagra killers. Ora quien podra defender a los pitufos o al americano?

  8. Desde Tierra Caliente

    Se culpó entre la autodefensa , la policía , SSP , militar y Gobernación municipal , estatal y federal. No habrá ninguna resolución.
