EL PASO -- A member of a Juárez police tactical team was shot and killed about 7 a.m. Thursday while driving a car on Pascual Orozco avenue.

Hector Delgado Galot, 31, was part of the police Delta tactical group, whose members were threatened with death in a note left outside the unit's offices on May 31. Delgado Galot leaves behind a wife and three children, ages 2, 3 and 6.

More than three dozen law enforcement officers have been killed in Juárez so far this year.
