This Thursday, two shootings were reported in Mexico City. In the first incident, a female vendor was injured during a robbery at a tennis shop in the Venustiano Carranza district. The events occurred in a market in the Felipe Ángeles neighborhood, where a man demanded the day's sales money and shot at the victim. The vendor was taken to the hospital for medical attention.
In another incident, in the Cuauhtémoc district, a young man was shot at the intersection of San Pablo and Topacio streets in the Centro neighborhood. The attack occurred after an argument between the young man and a motorcyclist, who pulled out a firearm and shot him in the leg before fleeing the scene. The injured man was dragged several meters by the motorcycle and subsequently taken to a hospital with injuries to his right leg.
The Mexico City Citizen Security Secretariat arrived at the scene and provided medical assistance to the injured young man. It was reported that an investigation is being conducted to identify the assailant through the area's surveillance cameras. Both incidents have raised concerns among the population, as armed violence in the city remains a recurring issue that jeopardizes the safety of its residents.
