A Monterrey, Nuevo Leon police station was attacked with a hand grenade Friday, meanwhile a female police officer was beaten at a police sub station, according to Mexican press reports.

Two unidentified individuals threw a hand grenade at a police station on Avenida Francisco Beltran at about 2230 hrs. Reports say an undetermined number of individuals were hurt in the attack and two private vehicles were damaged as well.

Reports say police do not think the police station was the target of the attack.

Meanwhile, a police substation on Avenida Condominios Constitucion was where a pair of unidentified armed suspects, dismounting from a Chevrolet Suburban, attacked a female police officer, beating her in the stomach.

The grenade attack is the third grenade attack against Monterrey police in as many days. On Wednesday four state police agents from two different agencies were attacked and wounded with a hand grenade, while a police station in eastern Monterrey was attacked with a hand grenade.
