State authorities find five bodies in military-style mountain camp in what local news media say is latest La Linea attack on Sinaloa cartel
EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – The death toll from two days of fighting between rival drug cartels in south and western Chihuahua, Mexico, has gone up to 15.
State authorities said a new mass shooting near the town of Madera claimed the lives of five men in a mountain camp that included a crude bunker made of rocks.
Police on Wednesday reported finding a man shot to death at the entrance of the camp and four other fatal gunshot victims about 100 feet away, near the rocks. All the victims were in their 30s and 40s and wore military-style garb but were not soldiers, the state Attorney General’s Office said.
