Mexico at war with drug cartels. 5 Mexican federal police killed

@ 10:38 AM (5 months, 28 days ago)

Things are NOT good in Mexico.

More dead cops.

Five federal police and a suspected hit man were killed in a shootout Tuesday as authorities surrounded a house in Culiacan, home to the Sinaloa drug cartel.

Four other federal police were hospitalized with wounds, and police took several suspected cartel members into custody, according to a federal police official who wasn’t authorized to give his name.

 

In the nearby border city of Juarez, a death list of 22 officers was left at a monument to fallen police four months ago, addressed to “those who still don’t believe” in the power of the cartels.

Of the 22, seven have been killed and three wounded in assassination attempts. All but one of the others have quit.
