Collateral Damage: Gang gunbattles, street blockades in Guadalajara, other Mexican cities

Gang gunbattles, street blockades in Mexico: "Suspected drug cartel gunmen hurled grenades, burned vehicles and blocked streets in a rapid series of attacks in (Guadalajara) Mexico's second-largest city, authorities said Wednesday.

The seven attacks within two hours late Tuesday appear to have been coordinated, and were staged by drug gangs, possibly in retaliation for the arrests of their members...

Other attacks took place Tuesday and Wednesday in the northern cities of Zacatecas and Monterrey, Mexico's third-largest city, resulting in several deaths."
