https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/aug/28/mexico-bar-attack-fire-dead-injured-coatzacoalcosAt least 26 people have been killed and 11 others seriously injured in an arson attack on a Mexican bar, which has highlighted the failure of the country’s new president to quickly bring down record levels of violence.
An armed gang stormed the Caballo Blanco, or White Horse, nightclub in the Mexican city of Coatzacoalcos at around 10pm on Tuesday night. They sealed the emergency exits before setting fire to the entrance hall and making their escape, apparently taking the establishment’s owner with them.
Sad to see this stuff happening South of the border. Might be something to point out to people that guns are not needed when the criminals really want to cause mass casualties.
