Masacre en ruedo de peleas de gallos deja al menos 20 muertos en México

Ciudad de México. Una masacre en un recinto de peleas de gallos, atribuida a enfrentamientos entre bandas del crimen organizado, dejó al menos 20 muertos en el estado mexicano de Michoacán, informaron este lunes las autoridades.

Las balaceras se desataron la noche del domingo en un palenque de la localidad de Tinajas, un espacio destinado a las riñas de gallos, conciertos y bailes populares. “Fue una masacre de un grupo contra otro en un palenque clandestino donde estaban y llegaron y balacearon a los asistentes y hubo desgraciadamente muchos muertos”, afirmó este lunes el presidente mexicano, Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
