Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Armed assailants killed eight people and wounded two at a roadside cafe in Guanajuato, Mexico. This was reported on December 1 by the N+ TV channel.

It is specified that the attack took place at night in the El Trebol area of ​​Apaseo el Grande. According to eyewitnesses, unknown persons arrived at the crime scene in a "luxurious white car", stopped near a cafe, on the side of the road, opened fire on a group of men and fled the scene. However, neither before nor after the shooting did the attackers utter a word.
Sounds like a cartel head honcho type, throwing his weight around.
A total of eight people were killed, and two more people, a man and a woman, received gunshot wounds and were hospitalized. The prosecutor's office has identified three of the deceased - two firefighters and an ambulance doctor.
How very odd.
The shooters' motives remain unknown.
They clearly wanted to kill people. Sometimes that must suffice.
Earlier, Regnum News Agency reported that 10 race car drivers were killed and nine more were injured in a shooting that was opened by unknown persons at a gas station in the Mexican state of Southern California. The state prosecutor's office has launched an investigation into the circumstances of the tragedy.

A Mexican court has sentenced three accomplices to 30 years in prison for the murder of Mexican journalist Maria Elena Ferral in the state of Veracruz. However, the person who ordered the murder has never been found.

#2 ^^ Maybe our Russian correspondent meant Baja with that but you've been to Chula Vista and Imperial Beach, right?

Somehow not too far from the truth.
