First modification:
In San Andrés Totolapan, 18 people were murdered on October 5, most of them public officials. The motive is unknown, but in an internet video the criminal group Los Tequileros claimed responsibility. Guerrero is a state where most of the mayors are imposed or subjugated by organized crime.
On October 5, the Los Tequileros criminal group opened fire at the Municipal Presidency of San Andrés Totolapan, Guerrero, and at the mayor’s house. The mayor, Conrado Mendoza Almeda, his father Juan Mendoza Tapia (from whom Conrado inherited the position) and 16 more people among public officials and residents died in the attacks. It is unknown the crime motive.
The Tequileros blocked the highways that lead to the municipal seat, which prevented the armed forces and the press from arriving promptly. The perpetrators first showered the City Hall with shrapnel and then went to the mayor’s house.
The state and municipal police, the Navy, the Army and the Guerrero Attorney General’s Office implemented an operation to capture the perpetrators and the Guerrero Attorney General’s Office has already opened an investigation folder. Shortly after the massacre, Los Tequileros uploaded a video to social networks claiming responsibility for the attack.

San Andrés Totolapan is located in the region known as Tierra Caliente, an area in which the states of Guerrero, Michoacán and the State of Mexico have a common border, and where various organized crime groups dispute its control as it lies at a strategic crossroads. for the transfer of drugs and everything prohibited.
The Tequileros have terrified the residents of San Andrés Totolapan. For years they have been kidnapped, extorted, killed, disappeared, exploited. One wonders if this time the state and federal authorities will react more firmly and take action on the matter.
