Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, who was under police protection, was shot dead in front of dozens of people
A mayor in Mexico’s western state of Michoacán was shot dead in a plaza in front of dozens of people who had gathered for Day of the Dead festivities, authorities have said.
The mayor of the Uruapan municipality, Carlos Alberto Manzo Rodríguez, was gunned down Saturday night in the town’s historic centre. He was rushed to a hospital where he later died, according to state prosecutor Carlos Torres Piña.
A city council member and a bodyguard were also injured in the assault.
What do we do about the guns already there?
Are you seriously trying to argue that if it wasn’t for the US supplying them, then the cartels wouldn’t have firearms? Please answer yes or no so anyone with a brain knows how seriously you should be taken.
