Five people died after gunmen burst into 'La Última y nos vamos', a bar in the community of Puerto Blanco, in San Luis de la Paz. Four were killed at the scene, with another victim dying at the hospital. Three others were wounded.
In the second massacre, six people were killed, two of them teenagers, and one was wounded in the community of San Juan de Razos in Salamanca. Around 10:00 p.m., a group of armed men carried out a direct attack against men and women who were on Laureles Street, near the sports fields.
According to local journalist Ignacio Tapia:
"It was a group of young people at a soccer field. They weren't playing due to the weather conditions, but they were gathered together when armed men arrived in several vehicles and shot them at point-blank range."
Five were killed at the scene, with the sixth victim dying at the hospital.

Violence in Guanajuato state is driven largely by the territorial dispute between the Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG) and the Cartel de Santa Rosa de Lima (CSRL). Both groups fight for control of drug distribution, fuel theft ("huachicol"), and local extortion rackets. Mass shootings targeting civilians, including families and bystanders, have become tragically common.
Bars, tire repair shops, and sports fields are common sites of massacres. This January, 11 were killed in a similar attack in Loma de Flores. Local news reported that at least five of the eleven deceased were linked to a private security company associated with the CJNG.

Sure no private security company associated with cjng makes as many millions of dollars as Securitech, they protect and still pay diego sinhué on the US for his help when he was goberladron in guanajuato and his beloved carlos zamarripa still there enjoying his million peiso pension.
ReplyDeleteit seems so counterproductive that they do this, i know they target rival faction but they also kill uninvolved people all the time. these groups tend to rely on local support but csrl seems to just rely on terror.
ReplyDeleteCSRL has been pushing hard since el menchos death & even expanded into a couple other states .. Overall they are still at the disadvantage but with new alliances who knows what can happen
