    20 inmates shot dead during Mexico prison battle

    20 inmates shot dead during Mexico prison battle

    Posted 4m ago

    MEXICO CITY (AP) — Twenty inmates were shot to death Monday when a group of prisoners attacked another gang inside a prison in the Mexican state of Sinaloa, authorities said. Two policemen guarding the prison were wounded.

    The lock-up in the Pacific coast city of Mazatlan was quickly brought under control and investigators found two pistols and an assault rifle inside, said Martin Gastelum, a spokesman for the Sinaloa state prosecutors' office.

    Gastelum said all the dead inmates were killed by other prisoners. He did not say whether police fired any shots while restoring order.

    Sinaloa state Public Safety Secretary Josefina Garcia told Radio Formula that one of the two police officers wounded was in serious condition.

    Garcia said 17 of the dead were among the inmates attacked and three were with the attackers.

    Local media said those attacked were apparently members of the Zetas drug gang, which is battling the powerful Sinaloa cartel, but officials were unable to confirm that.

    Many of Mexico's most powerful drug traffickers hail from Sinaloa, a key smuggling corridor and cultivation area for marijuana and opiates. The northwestern state, and Mazatlan in particular, are rife with turf battles among drug gangs.

    Mexico's drug gangs frequently try to break their members out of prison, by staging attacks from the outside or buying off prison officials. But there was no immediate confirmation Monday's shootings involved a prison-break attempt.

    28 inmates killed in Mexico prison clashes

    By E. EDUARDO CASTILLO, Associated Press Writer
    Monday, June 14, 2010 at 6:34 p.m.

    MEXICO CITY — At least 28 inmates were killed Monday as rival gangs clashed inside a prison in northwestern Mexico, authorities said. Three policemen guarding the prison were wounded.

    In one of a series of attacks, 20 inmates were shot to death when a group of prisoners opened fire on members of a rival gang inside the Mazatlan prison, Sinaloa state Public Safety Secretary Josefina Garcia told Radio Formula.

    The gang that initiated the attack killed 17 rivals and lost three of its own members.

    One of the three wounded police was in serious condition, Garcia said.

    The lockup in the Pacific coast city of Mazatlan was quickly brought under control and investigators found two pistols and an assault rifle inside, said Martin Gastelum, a spokesman for the Sinaloa state prosecutors' office.

    Gastelum said the killings were all at the hands of other prisoners. He did not say whether police fired any shots while restoring order.

    Local media said those attacked were apparently members of the Zetas drug gang, which is battling the powerful Sinaloa cartel, but officials were unable to confirm that.

    Hours later, eight more prisoners were stabbed to death by other inmates, said state Public Safety Department spokeswoman Angeles Moreno. She said police are investigating what sparked the violence.

    As I see it, that's 17 fewer potential illegal invaders we will need to worry about.
