Attack on Nightclub in Guadalajara leaves 6 dead and 38 wounded

(Guadalajara, Jalisco) Gunmen in three vehicles entered and then sprayed a nightclub with bullets, followed by two grenades. Initial reports are at least six dead and 38 injured. Because many were transported by private vehicles, it is feared the numbers may increase. Most of the victims were outside of the club when the attack occurred around 4 am (some reports put it at 3 am).

====================

Related: CJNG (New Generation Jalisco Cartel) posted narcobanners denying responsibility for attack. This was followed by a message from the MFG cartel calling on the authorities to excuse the ignorance on the part of CJNG, saying " we apologize for their ignorance, and in advance we also ask forgiveness, because we taught them to work but we forgot to teach them good manners ."

Blow Dealt to Familia Michoacána Cartel

(Mexicali, Baja California) State Police in this border city located and dismantled a narco laboratory producing methamphetamine, or ‘ice’. It began when officers stopped a speeding car at 3 am. Due to the 3 subjects nervousness, a search of the car found a container of ‘ice’. They identified the main man and told where the clandestine lab was located. A raid on the location found more drugs, a weapon, and equipment for making the synthetic drug. The principal admitted he was working for La Familia Michoacana. In total, nine people were arrested. (Note: Most of us with knowledge of these labs know this was a minimal ‘blow’ if one at all to the cartel. They likely havedozens, if not hundreds, of these labs.)

Four Central American Countries Join to Protect Migrants

(Tegucigalpa, Honduras) Representatives from Central American countries and the Dominican Republic agreed late Friday to create a "Network of Protection of Migrants" in their journey through Mexico toward the U.S., official sources reported on Saturday. "The network is composed of the countries working together in protecting human rights of migrants; Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Dominican Republic and Nicaragua," noted one Honduran Foreign Ministry statement, issued after the meeting. A total of 72 migrants were killed last year, allegedly by members of the Zetas in Mexico, 30 of whom were Honduran, of which 21 bodies were repatriated and the remaining to be repatriated the coming weeks. "At least 20 thousand migrants in transit (per year) by way of Mexico to the US are victims of kidnapping and other types of humiliation", according to Amnesty International. "We know that children and women are a vulnerable sector, studies show that six out of ten women are raped and even before embarking on their voyage, many go through the shelters collecting contraceptives because they know what awaits them on the way "

Price Increase on Food Expected Due to Cold

(Villahermosa, Tabasco) Price increases of 50 to 200 per cent have been noted due to frost in parts of Mexico. Tomato, chili, cucumber, lemon, potatoes, carrots, corn, beans, rice, eggs and a long list of commodities, are being impacted by price increases due to the frost, which has caused a decreased input and may create shortages within 20 days. Carrots alone have increased in cost by 200% in eight days. (Note: This can create shortages and increased costs here. As noted previously, South America’s heavy rains causing landslides and flooding have destroyed much of their agricultural crops of bananas, guavas, mango's, and other tropical fruits & vegetables.)
