A Juárez city police commander was killed early Friday inside the Cuauhtemoc police station by an armed group of men wielding assault rifles, police spokesman Jaime Torres said.
Authorities identified the victim as police Lt. Javier Alarcon Ruiz, one of several people who appeared on an anonymous list of alleged potential targets.

The armed commando entered the police station in the Bermudez Industrial Park without any problem, located Alarcon and sprayed him with AK-47 rounds, police said.

Is this what was on Fox News earlier this afternoon?

Wow, I feel for the police in mexico. It must be awfully frightening. However, a lot of police are involved with the drug cartels of their own choosing ... so I'm not sure just how badly I really feel for them ..
