About eight miles ahead, the two other cars were also attacked, killing the two other women, Mr. LeBarón said. Family members said several children were rescued, some having hidden by the roadside to escape the attackers. “Six little kids were killed, and seven made it out alive,” Mr. LeBarón said. The women had married men from La Mora, which is in the municipality of Bavispe in Sonora.
