Four shot dead in restaurant in South Mexico

Four people were shot dead at a restaurant in Mexico's violence-torn southern state of Guerrero Sunday, said local authorities. The two men and two women were killed when four gunmen entered the restaurant in Sabana Grande, a community near Iguala, and opened fire on the victims. Iguala is where 43 students were abducted, tortured and incinerated in September 2014. The restaurant, named Tere, is located on the highway between the state capital Chilpancingo and Iguala. Local police, who were called to the scene around 4 am, found the spent bullets of a 9 mm caliber weapon. The daughter of one of the victims identified her father, Tomas Sandoval Pastor, 72, and her sister, Antonia Sandoval Atempa, 40. Both were residents of the town of Eduardo Neri, which is north to Chilpancingo, the state capital. The other victims have yet to be identified. No other details about the incident are available at the moment.
