nothing ...it is not my colonia ..so no one really knows ...there is so much going on like that here that just a few kids killed dosen't hardly make the news...and when you ask ...the answer is usually ..no se...
it could have been they were halcones..little street dealers...ladrons..
or just as likely they were killed for some sort of retaliation for something some one else did ..or even mistaken identity
right now telediario is reporting some kind of ongoing big balacera in apodaca..always some shit there or guadalupe
