Two other victims, also shot to death, were found around 2:30 a.m. Monday in the eastside neighborhood of Mariano Matamoros.
The Attorney General’s Office indicated that one of the victims, unidentified, was found on the street, while the body of another man was found inside a nearby house. He was identified as Antonio Avena Villela.
For its part, Tijuana’s Public Safety Department announced that an armed attack occurred around 8 a.m. Sunday in the Unión neighborhood in the western beach district Playas de Tijuana.
A group of armed men arrived at a location where a party was being held and opened fire on the guests, among them a municipal officer named Adán Armando Castillo, who responded by firing his weapon in the air, according to the department the aggressors fled.
One person was wounded in the attack, a woman identified as Gloria Pantoja, 25. A total of 23 spent shell casings from various weapons were found at the scene.
