“Bodies found after Mexican raid”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The bodies of six kidnap victims have been recovered from a house in Mexico, following a three-hour shootout between gunmen and soldiers and police.

The men had been killed by a shot to the head, a federal agent told a news briefing in the border city of Tijuana.

The stand-off began as agents prepared to raid a house that police say was a hideout for the Tijuana drugs cartel, also known as Arellano Felix.

It is the latest in a series of drug-related killings in Mexico.

Tijuana is the biggest city in Baja California, which was Mexico’s most violent state in 2007 with more than 400 murders.”
