'Mariachi musician' gunmen kill three in Mexico City

Gunmen dressed as traditional mariachi musicians have killed at least three people and wounded at least seven in Mexico City.


The armed men opened fire at a road crossing on the edge of the Plaza Garibaldi, a major tourist attraction packed with mariachi bars, police said.

The gunmen then fled from the scene on motorbikes.

Headline should say "musicians".

Tom, not to be a d##k about it, but since the word musician is being used as an adjective to modify gunmen, the singular is correct.
My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

Death toll is up to 5.

And yes, To-Whose-Benefit, I posted this very early this morning. I see now the difference.
