Mexican Drug War Caught on CCTV – Four Dead

This happened in on Francisco Madero Avenue, Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. The CCTC cameras located in Lozano Garza jewelry store downtown Monterrey recorded three gunmen who burst into the store with machine guns and unleashed the ruthless gunfire fury upon three shoppers and an unarmed security guard. This Mexican drug war related shooting resulted in death of four people.

From the video it is obvious that none of the people inside had a chance to react. The gunmen ran into the store and opened fire immediately. Three CCTV cameras were installed inside the store offering quite a multiangle view of what happened. The girl that fell on top of other shoppers who were shot dead the first time was still alive, but by the time the gunmen left, one of them shot her in the spine ultimately murdering her on the scene as well.

Oddly enough, the gunman who ran into the store first and clearly offed most people got shot by his comrade who ran in right after him. Wounded and lying on the floor, he was helped by his two accomplices out of there. One has later returned to pick up an assault rifle that the wounded gunmen dropped after he’d been shot.

It was a quick job that lasted mere 23 seconds and took place on March 14, 2007. The killers did not steal any jewelry, did not pick up the cash register and did not heed any of the security cameras.

Dead Count

The incident left four people dead:

Benjamin Espinosa – off duty police officer who was shopping with his wife for gratitude medallion after successful intestinal operation of their infant daughter
Griselda Melendez – wife of above mentioned police commander
Ignacia Perez – jewelry seller
Fernando Rodriguez – unarmed security guard who accepted that $90 a month job to save money for 15th birthday celebration of his oldest daughter.

    Mexico is becoming a problem. I think it is time to pull our troops out of the middle east and take care of a problem country much closer to home. Mean peopls like these should not be tolerated. They should not even be given “fair” trials in court. I say we make war on Mexico and cleanse it of these animal criminals.

    I dont get the point?
    4 random people sprayed for no reason and no gain.
    I watched first and assumed they was killing a rival ganglord and his wife or something.
    On a side note I cant help wondering why she didnt play dead but I guess you cant exactly think straight in such random chaos.

  3. David, says:

    Agree with Mike

  4. animal thug says:

    It looked like they shot one of their own.

  5. Tman says:

    Mike has the right idea!!

  6. alien says:

  7. barbershoppe says:

    if i was the woman in white i would have played dead…she would have still been alive if she did’nt move although alot of murderers are’nt very gullible

  8. Patrick says:

    Mexicans have always been a problem.
    I guess no body remembers the Alamo anymore.
    Or the 3 in a half million of there own people gunned down, or the 400,000 Americans who have been murederd at there hands the last hundread years.

    Nothing is new with them people. Same thing except, now the media is paying them attention.

  9. Axl says:

    Dude, dont inferfeer with stuff like this, sure its a bitch but why is it your problem?
    Its not just Mexico, its alot of other countries aswell but u cant interfeer no matter how horrific it is.
    Im not saying its not a problem at all, i have family in countries like this but what can u do? just pray for there safety and try to take them to a safer place, or maby country.

  10. Dave says:

    this doesn’t make sense. it has to be gang related and the victims were probably are members of a rival gang. even the female, I would assume.

  11. chickensoup says:

    i would have played dead too if she wouldn’t have moved she would have lived but she didn’t

  12. Bob says:

    This type of stuff happen all the time in Los Angeles and in large citys all around America. The murder rate in the United States is worst than in mexico. I remeber one year here in Los Angeles over a 1,000 people were murderd. The same year a couple of my friends were shot and killed in drive bys.

  13. ROD says:

    THIS SHIT IS HAPPING EVERYWERE IN THE WORLD THEY DON’T
    CARE WHO THEY KILL OR HURT LIFE DOESN’T MEAN A THING.
    PEOPLE HERE IN AMERICA NEED TO BE CAREFUL WERE YOU GO IN THIS CRAZY WORLD THEY REALLY WANT TO KILL US TO

  14. SETOD says:

    VIVA MEXICO!

  15. Breanna says:

    It’s not the country…it’s people. People are fucktards. People in the US are like this as well. In every country there are maniacs that are allowed weapons. Don’t discriminate based on their background or country. Discriminate based on their upbringing and personalities.

    So, the general gist of what I’m getting at is…people become the way they are because of their stimuli throughout life.

  16. ted woods says:

    All these morons saying they would have played dead if they were that girl are stupid! You think this is some movie? You basic human instint is to survive and move. Stfu you e-experts!

  17. Bob says:

    Good idea Mike. I can’t believe America would be so lax about this stuff. Someone should show this video to President Obama and maybe he’ll think twice about granting amnesty.

  18. Joe says:

    ditto

  19. Joe says:

    sotty I mean ditto @ what Brianna wrote

  20. Sad says:

    This is a very sad tragedy and is not the first or the last it just shows how people in this world are becoming more like animals :( its never going to stop because in the end behind all this Deaths there is a Profitable market that people use for monetary gain look at all the 9 eleven bullshit and fuck sakes if they wanted to finish the war tell em one time either end it or we will block ur fucking country out and let u all jihad eachother fuck it . let the animals be animals . and welcome the goodpeople into a better country .

  21. Gallo says:

    The Problem is the consumers(United States of Northern America). Its a lot supply and demand. maybe if we legalized drugs this wouldn’t be an issue.

  22. JimmyZappa says:

    War on Mexico? You people are retards. Yes, crime and drug trafficking are problems over there (among other things) but what is declaring “war” gonna do? Absolutely nothing, just drain more of our tax dollars.
