Gunmen kill 14 in gang wars in MexicoGunmen have killed 14 people in northeastern Mexico in two attacks likely sparked by gang wars in the state of Tamaulipas. Turf wars between the Gulf Cartel and their former armed wing, the Zetas, have racked the state for years. The city has been racked by infighting by factions of the Zetas drug gang, security experts say. Federal and state forces were investigating the shootings, which were probably the result of a dispute between rival groups, Garza said. State interior minister Herminio Garza Palacios said the shootings took place in Ciudad Victoria, capital of Tamualipas, a state on the Gulf of Mexico that has been mired in violence between warring drug cartels for years.
