Shootout during Children's Day festivities |
The Spokesman of
Tamaulipas, Guillermo Martínez, on April 22 stated that statewide “we are at
peace…at calm” and announced that they would hold a meeting to rethink the
regional security strategy.
The spokesman’s
statements occur in a context of frequent reports of shootings and criminal
acts in the state of Tamaulipas.
May 6, 2014—At
least 41 homicides (Others have reported higher numbers) have occurred in the
state of Tamaulipas from April 22 to May 5, according to official tally
figures.
One of those
killed this week was Colonel Salvador de Haro Muñoz, who was recently appointed
Chief of Intelligence of the Public Security Ministry of Tamaulipas.
Just yesterday,
10 people were murdered. The
Coordination Group of Tamaulipas, which is integrated with state and federal security
forces, reported that the clashes occurred in the municipalities of Reynosa,
Matamoros and Ciudad Victoria.
In Reynosa,
shortly after 14:00 hours, members of a criminal group attacked Federal Police
officers who were carrying out a surveillance patrol, sparking a chase that
ended at the parking entrance of a shopping center on Hidalgo Boulevard and El
Pasito Avenue. At that point, four armed
civilians, who were traveling in one of the cars, were shot to death while
trying to escape while firing at the police.
Three of them were on the pavement while the fourth was dead inside the
vehicle.
Meanwhile in
Matamoros, on Monday at 11:15 hours, armed civilians who were traveling in a
truck, opened fire at members of the Mexican Navy who were carrying out a surveillance
patrol on the road Lauro del Villar, off Ciudad Industrial. One of the assailants was killed as he
confronted the Mexican Navy with a high caliber weapon, while his companions
managed to escape by running through undergrowth.
In Ciudad
Victoria, an operation by the State Police against a criminal group ended with
a shootout that left five males dead, including the Chief of Intelligence of
the Public Security Ministry of Tamaulipas.
The governor of
Tamaulipas regretted “deeply the death of the brave police chief, fallen in the
line of duty” and expressed his condolences, as well as wishing a speedy
recovery of the members of the federal forces who were injured in those
incidents.
Since April 22
until last week, there were violent incidents in the municipalities of San
Fernando, Matamoros, Miguel Alemán, Ciudad Victoria and Reynosa.
As of Friday of
last week, government reports indicated that 24 “armed civilians” were killed.
Official figures
indicate that two federal policemen were killed in a shootout in Reynosa.
It was also
reported that three innocent people were also killed.
In another
incident that occurred in Ciudad Victoria, the owner of a taco shop and a
client were killed, while seven others were injured in the shootout that occurred
on the night of April 25.
Just Tuesday of
last week, a series of shootouts and blockades left at least 16 people dead.
This adds up to
at least 41 homicides in Tamaulipas…and counting.

Those "M-3" markings on windshield, driver's side. That doesn't bother drivers? Seen those markings before same side too. Would bother me. Can't say from picture if it is painted after shooting, but in that case what would be reason? I don't believe in that.

ReplyDeleteI know what it means but why driver's side? Why not for example on the hood? or side doors. Ok, many times it's being painted on side doors, I know.
