10 Injured And 3 Dead In Unprecedented Explosion In Mexico

The governor of the Mexican state of Jalisco reported that three police officers were killed and ten others were hurt in an unprecedented explosives attack on Tuesday.

Governor Enrique Alfaro tweeted, “Tonight, personnel from the @FiscaliaJal and Tlajomulco Police suffered a cowardly attack with explosive devices, which preliminarily caused the death of three colleagues from the municipal police and the Prosecutor’s Office, as well as injured 10 people”, through his official Twitter handle.

“This is an unprecedented event that shows what these organized crime groups are capable of. This attack also represents a challenge against the Mexican State as a whole”, he continued.

“The Jalisco Security Cabinet is in permanent session. From the Prosecutor’s Office we will continue to report as the investigations progress and the official data is confirmed”, he added in his tweet.

The western state is the headquarters of the Jalisco New Generation cartel, one of Mexico’s most prominent drug trafficking organizations that has a presence throughout the country and is involved in disputes with other drug syndicates.

According to Televisa, the explosion happened near a car in which the security officials were traveling.
