Seven Dead After Two Bar Massacres in Celaya, Guanajuato

By "El Huaso" for Borderland Beat

Seven are dead after two attacks on bars in Celaya, Guanajuato, in mass shootings against businesses which are typical of criminal violence in the state. In addition to homicides, Guanajuato state leads the nation in massacres - attacks with several fatal victims - with 57 massacres so far in 2024.


The first attack occured on October 4th, when at least two gunmen entered Belfast Bar in central Celaya, killing three employees; two women, and one man. The attack occured in the evening, before any guests had arrived, while employees were preparing for service. Other news sources also confirmed that only these three employees were killed, with no other injuries. 

A short statement on Belfast Bar's Facebook page lamented the casualties but provided no further information.


One day later on October 5th, another bar, Código Postal 19, was attacked in a similar way leaving four dead and one wounded.


In 2022, Código Postal 19, a chain of bars, closed four branches in Celaya after an armed attack left five dead.

It is unknown what the reasons for these attacks is. Businesses in Guanajuato can be targeted by criminal groups for a variety of reasons, such as allowing the sale of drugs or prostitution provided by rival groups, or failing to pay extortion fees. In addition to homicides, Guanajuato state leads the nation in massacres - attacks with several fatal victims - with 57 massacres so far in 2024, according to think tank Causa en Comun.

  1. With all the guanajuato bar attacks in the past year.
    Why would anyone living there decide to drink his beer in a bar instead of drinking his beer in the comfort of his own home ?

  4. I think marros people strike again. Those shotings happen pretty often. Pretty sure they sold drugs out of the bar.

    OT: They killed the mayor of chilpancingo and cut his head off, after 6 days in office.

  7. Guanajuato donde la vida no vale nada se empieza llorando y hacie se acaba...When I use to visit Celaya never saw the corruption side of things was to busy enjoying family and friends. Some good carnitas with my primos and some good drinks. Now to sit down and have some food I rather take it to go or just have food in the near pueblos. Y ya casi december so who knows what awaits us if we visit the family. El que no debe no teme..wish that was true just want to say hello to my tias and cousins but dont want to be that random person that gets picked up and not able to return home.

    1. Es una tragedia. Celaya has a lot of nice people. Used to be some fun bars to go to, some beautiful places to eat in Comonfort and rumbo a Neutla, La Burger allá por Galerias. (It may still be open but I aint going). It all started going to hell about ten years ago. Don't even get me started about Apaseo. El Corral de la Chiva was the best. Had to see it to believe it... Viejas chidas de toda la República. Pinches huachicoleros de mierda.

  9. I hope that the women killed where not after dark pleasure senoritas. These girls provide a vital service to our society. They do what our wife won't do at home. Please don't tell my wife Buffy. Nuff Said!!!
