Officer Killed Covering Son during Shootout





Translated by Valor for Borderland Beat



Nezahualcóyotl, México.—Arturo Flores Martínez, a member of the state commission of public safety (CES), was killed after being shot by a stray bullet during a shootout.

It was his day off and he was only going to the store with his son when they least imagined that they would be in the middle of a shootout between criminals and members of the Bank & Industrial Police Department (PBI), in Mexico City.

Gunmen tried to steal a delivery unit that was being guarded by a member of the PBI.

Suddenly, peace was lost when five men entered the store in which the member of the CES was in with his son.

They asked for directions and before receiving a response, they drew out a pistol and threatened the PBI members.

One of the police reacted at the same time, drawing out his gun to defend himself, as the shootout began.

The officer who repelled the attack managed to wound an assailant but was also grazed by a bullet in the head.

Meanwhile, the member of the CES, who was on his day off, was immersed in the crossfire with his son.


The CES agent sheltered his son with his body.  A bullet ricocheted directly at his back, and fell in front of the store, with his son in his arms.

When the paramedics arrived, it was too late to save Arturo Martínez.  Several spent .38 and 9mm caliber shells were found at the scene.  One of the criminals was wounded and was arrested when he went to seek medical attention at a nearby hospital.

  4. This guy is a real hero and a man with balls! Fuck the narcos who live and die for greed only! This guy died protecting his son. Any real man and father would do the same! Hope his family receives some sort of recognition for his actions and even better some sort of life insurance payment (which many peace officers in Mexico are known to have), so that the family can get by for some time with this income!

    1. To kill and die for money. Hiding, running, making enemies every day. Losing family members, friends, and ultimately your life. All just for power and money you can't even enjoy. The problem in Mexico is that people feel like worthless crap when they are poor. They sacrifice all just to feel important. Instead of working, and being active to improve their life, they chose to become criminals.

      It looks like a murder planned to look like a bank robbery...
      --No guard takes his gun and kills some innocent bystander with several shots to the back by accident...
