The bar is located in a neighborhood with three university campuses and is popular with students. Most of the victims were under 30 years old. Police named no suspects or motive.

#4 Actually, 3 died at the scene and two died in hospital. AP put out the bad scoop. The rumor here is that this had something to do with the owners of the bar, either drug related or extortion. Maggie |

#3 and someone else got the "second effort" award: TIJUANA – Gunmen shot and killed a patient receiving treatment at a private hospital early yesterday, the Baja California Attorney General's Office reported, just hours after a nightclub attack left five dead. The hospital incident took place about 12:30 a.m. inside the intensive care unit of Hospital del Prado, a small but highly regarded facility a few miles from downtown. Some Tijuana news organizations reported the patient was being treated for a gunshot wound. The Attorney General's Office said the patient was a man, 20 to 25 years old. Administrators declined to comment. "Please don't kill us!" |
