A violent shooting attack left four men dead and four more injured in the Paraiso neighborhood in the municipality of El Salto.
The Jalisco Public Prosecutor’s Office reported on Sunday morning that a report was received at the emergency number at approximately 3:00 a.m., mentioning an aggression.
Police and paramedics went to the intersection of San José and San Onofre streets, where they confirmed the gunshot attack, so they reported it to the Public Prosecutor’s Office, who arrived at the scene, as well as agents of the Investigation Police.
At the crime scene a blue Chevy type vehicle was found with a dead man on one side; 30 meters away another gray Ford Fiesta type vehicle, with license plates from the state of Durango, with a second dead man inside.
A third man was dead next to this vehicle. All of them had apparent gunshot wounds.
In addition, the first responders provided medical attention to five more men, who were injured by the projectiles. A few moments later another man, 39 years of age, was reported dead.
Forensic experts from the Jalisco Institute of Forensic Sciences carried out the identification and collection of evidence, as well as the removal of the bodies.
