ACAPULCO, Gro., July 23, 2019.- A video circulating on social networks shows the exact moment of the attack on customers of “Mr. Bar”, which occurred on Sunday morning in the Condesa subdivision of the port, and left as balance Five people dead and six wounded.

In the images, which were captured by a security camera, it is observed when two men arrive, one thin and the other robust, who exchange words with another man, and then continue walking. The robust individual points to the thin one, towards a table filled of people.

The latter approaches and pulls out a weapon, while the other one stands a few meters behind and seconds later leaves, just before the other man starts firing at the occupants of the table, who throw themselves on the ground, run or stand.

They crawl to try to protect themselves. The aggressor withdraws, but in his flight continues firing at those who pass near him, while trying to leave the place.

Quadratín Guerrero reported that on Monday at a press conference, prosecutor Jorge Zuriel de los Santos Barrila said the victims belong to a criminal group dedicated to extortion, led by a man known as El Veinte, who was arrested a few months ago and was responsible for controlling the collection of fees in nightclubs and restaurants in the Coast; and that they were attacked by an opposing gang.
