Borderland Beat: Juárez police commander ambushed, killed in hail of gunfire: "The municipal police commander for the downtown district in Juárez was killed Saturday morning after an ambush near the Bridge of the Americas.
Juárez municipal police spokesman Adrián Sánchez said Víctor Nazario Moreno Ramírez, 32, died around 8:20 a.m. after two trucks and two compact vehicles closed down and opened fire against his vehicle while driving on Cuatro Siglos Boulevard, almost below the international bridge.
Another officer who served as one of Moreno's personal guards and who wasn't identified was seriously injured and taken to a local hospital, Sánchez said."

And sometimes I simply muse.
