Reading the news on Facebook. How sad that this could happen at the central mercado. http://abcdezihuatanejo.com/ejecutado-pleno-centro/

What is going on? Is it gang related? Drug cartels? Money?

Fortunately there were no innocent bystanders injured.

So sad what is happening in Zihuatanejo.

So true - - we forget that Zihua is just as open to crime as the rest of the world. All citizens everywhere must join together and help stop the madness!!

This might explain why there seems to be a not a great crop of politicians.
Not a great incentive to run

Any chance on getting the article translated? I tried to cut/paste to no avail ... or just a summary in english.
Thanks

I use Chrome as my browser. It automatically translates Spanish newspaper articles to English. Seldom grammatically correct, but usually understandable.

What it says is roughly this:

At 4:20 Sunday afternoon, the shooting victim got out of a car on Juarez and was heading into the market. He was shot by machine gun fire from a passing vehicle. That vehicle then fled.

Medics tried to revive him to no avail. They took the remains to a funeral home and the family claimed him.

There is no mention in the article as to motive, etc.

He was a member of a local family, and he had just arrived from Morelia where he was a college student and rising futbol player.

My heart goes out to his family and the beautiful community of Zihuatanejo.
This is tragic and heartbreaking.
