Collateral damage: Gunmen kill seven at Mexico soccer match

Very sad to say, but declaring "We Are All Juarez" and building soccer fields isn't going to end the drug war.

AFP: Gunmen kill seven at Mexico soccer match: "CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico — Gunmen who attacked a group of youths playing soccer killed seven people in this violent northern border city, the local prosecutors office said Monday. ...

The gunmen arrived at the soccer match in three vehicles and fired 180 rounds, "leaving three youths without life, and four others died later in local hospitals," the Chihuahua state prosecutor's forensic medicine service said. Two other youths were still hospitalized with wounds.

The stadium where the shooting occurred was inaugurated just four months ago as part of a campaign called "We are all Juarez" that the local government has hoped will help stem a wave of drug-related violence." Jan. 24, 2011
