Mexican Army Official Ambushed and Killed
Lieutenant colonel Victor Manuel Gil Cagal – a high ranking Mexican army official was found gunned down in a white Mitsubishi car with Mexico City license plates along with his girlfriend in Zamora, Michoacan on March 15, 2011. The investigators found more than 150 casings of different calibre cartridges at the scene. According to the witnesses, the car carrying Victor Manuel Gil Cagal and his girlfriend – 29 year old Alejandra Ortega stopped at the traffic light when a group of armed men surrounded the car and opened fire. The attackers then fled without a trace and are still at large. 42 year old Lt.Col. Victor Manuel Gil Cagal was in command of the 37 Battalion of Infantry, under the Ministry of National Defence (SEDENA – Secretaria de la Defensa Nacional), Mexico. His girlfriend Alejandra Ortega was a member of the Municipal Police force in Zamora. Pure carnage Mexico style. The woman took much more severe headshots than the man. The man looks as if he was laughing in that picture. Maybe just before he died, he took a glimpse of his girlfriend’s head and it gave him a chuckle |

Re: Mexican Army Official Ambushed and Killed
On the crime scene, investigators have found 103 cases of .22, 38 cases of 7,65 and 14 cases of .38 (special): and all the shots came from the right side of the road, so the article is inaccurate when it reads that "they surrounded the car". The man had his own gun, and not even a very bad one: a FEG 9mm, made in Hungary), not sure about the spec. model but almost sure that it goes with some 13 rounds mag. So, if the attackers weren't that cowards, the man could have saved his own and the woman's life, since it's obvious that the attackers weren't pro at all: (155 bullets, totally, to kill two people, is stuff made by noobs: a pro would have done bang-bang and end of story). The gun was found still into the bumbag that he was wearing, which is not a nice place where to keep a gun IMHO, especially if one is continuously esposed at risk: just the time that you need to open the zip might cost you your life. Mexico is going worse and worse each day: very very sad. Thanks for sharing |
