Gunmen killed 10 people and wounded at least seven on Saturday at a bar in the central Mexican city of Querétaro, a local security official said.
The attackers arrived in a van at the Los Cantaritos bar and opened fire inside, where “10 people died,” Querétaro’s Public Security Secretary, Juan Luis Ferrusca, said in a video posted on social media.
At least “seven more were injured,” Ferrusca added.
It was confirmed that “at least four people armed with long weapons arrived on board a van,” said the Secretary of Security.
A suspect was arrested and the vehicle used in the attack was found abandoned and burned, Ferrusca said.
Querétaro is considered one of the safest cities in Mexico, where spiraling violence, largely related to drug trafficking and gangs, has caused more than 450,000 murders since 2006.
