An unspecified number of people were also missing, including some who were at the mayor's office, the governor said.
A wall of the room of a home is riddled with bullet holes after a gun battle between Mexican security forces and suspected cartel gunmen, in Villa Union, Mexico, Saturday, Nov. 30, 2019.The outbreak of violence occurred during a testing week for President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who on Friday said he would not accept any foreign intervention in Mexico to deal with violent criminal gangs after Trump's comments.
"I don't think that Mexico needs intervention. I think Mexico needs collaboration and cooperation," said Riquelme, whose party is in opposition to Lopez Obrador."We're convinced that the state has the power to overcome the criminals." U.S. Attorney General William Barr is due to visit Mexico next week to discuss cooperation over security.
