And from the state of Chiapas we go up to the state of Zacatecas where there were also shootings, kidnappings, and fires of several houses in three neighborhoods and two municipalities of Fresnillo. Strongly armed men arrived at the homes with violence and shot into them after opening the doors. In total 6 break-ins to homes have been registered by the police forces. Of which between 8 and 10 people have been reported missing.

Now we’re going to the state of Coahuila where there was also a violent weekend. There State Police repelled an attack, an attack by armed individuals in the municipality of Hidalgo. The uniformed men were doing a routine tour when suddenly they were caught by surprise, attacked and shot at. It’s being presumed that some of the attackers were wounded during this exchange of gunfire. 2 officers were injured.

And now let's go to the port of Acapulco. Take a look at what happened there. Authorities reported the armed attack on a yacht charter ticket seller. Witnesses indicated that it was a lone murderer who approached the victim and shot him on at least 3 occasions. This happened on the fisherman's walk. There in full view of tourists and residents. What a scare they must’ve taken. The aggressor fled the scene and vanished among the citizens.
