At least 14 killed in bloody gunfight in northern MexicoTen suspected cartel gunmen and four police were killed during a shootout on Saturday in a Mexican town near the US border, days after US President Donald Trump raised bilateral tensions by saying he would designate the gangs as terrorists. Riquelme said authorities had identified 14 vehicles involved in the attack and seized more than a dozen guns. Lopez Obrador said Mexico would handle the problem, a view echoed by Riquelme as he spoke to reporters. I think Mexico needs collaboration and cooperation,” said Riquelme, whose party is in opposition to Lopez Obrador. Lopez Obrador took office a year ago pledging to pacify the country after more than a decade of gang-fueled violence.
