Mexico’s madness has spread to the killing of elected officials, Alexander Lopez, the mayor of El Naranjo, Mexico, in the central state of San Luis Potosi was gunned down and killed inside his office.
Four armed and hooded men stepped out of a white truck at city hall, the San Luis Potosi government said in a statement. Two of the men posted themselves outside, and two went inside and to the top floor of the building, where they entered the mayor’s office and shot him.
At least seven mayors in various Mexican states have been assassinated in 2010.
Mexican President Felipe Calderon condemned the ‘criminal and cowardly’ killing of the mayor.
Felipe Calderon said in a press conference; ‘The federal government reiterates that it will continue working for the security of the citizens, with all the available resources of the state,’
