Texas College Student Shot and Killed in Mexico

A Texas college student was shot and killed in Mexico after the bus he was riding on was hijacked by suspected members of a Mexican drug cartel, The Brownsville Herald reports.

Jonathan William Torres, an 18-year-old college freshman at the University of Texas at Brownsville, was killed Sept. 30 in Matamoros -- just outside Ciudad Mante in the southern part of Tamaulipas -- a university spokeswoman told the newspaper.

Torres was reportedly on his way to visit family when his bus was allegedly ambushed by members of Mexican organized crime. At least two people were killed in the attack, according to a U.S. official who spoke to the newspaper on condition of anonymity.

TW,
Please come up with another excuse so America can feel better about this senseless murder as well.

Mexican geographic note: Matamoros is in northern Tamaulipas, not southern. Ciudad Mante is in southern Tamaulipas, not northern.

#11 Brownsville & Matamoros are sister cities, separated by the Rio Grande, like a smaller version of El Paso & Juarez.

American-reared college kid -- possibly an American citizen, possibly a legal resident -- rides a bus through known Mexican drug gang territory and gets killed. Unfortunately Darwin wins. I'm not sure what the issue is, wr.
