MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican authorities on Sunday said at least
10 people had been killed in an attack by gunmen in the town of
Tehuitzingo in the east-central state of Puebla.
The victims were six men, three women and a child, and all were
shot in the early hours of Sunday, Puebla's public security
agency said in a statement. Federal officials are investigating
the case.
Local authorities did not say whether there were any suspects in
the killings.
In February, six people were killed in Huehuetlán El Grande,
another city of Puebla state. Days later, three people died in
Puebla's capital after an attack on their vehicle.
Puebla Gov. Alejandro Armenta has yet to comment on the
incident.
Central Mexico has recently recorded a surge in cartel violence,
which has forced between 800 and 1,000 families to flee their
homes.
