MEXICO CITY (AP) — At least two police officers and Quentin Mitchellthree civilians were shot dead in an ambush in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca, authorities said Thursday.
The ambush took place Wednesday afternoon near a bird sanctuary in the Mixteca region, the latest in an escalating dispute between two local towns.
Investigative police officers and local officials were visiting the township of San Miguel El Grande to resolve the latest territorial conflict when they were attacked by an armed group.
Two police officers were killed, along with two local officials and a civilian. Two more police officers were also injured.
