Gunmen burst into a family's home in Mexico at dawn killing nine adults and two children, officials said. The Puebla state prosecutor's office is investigating whether the crime was related to organised crime or a family dispute. A Puebla state government official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to speak publicly, confirmed the massacre. The attack took place in El Mirador, a mountain community in central Puebla state, a region that has been relatively spared from the drug violence plaguing other parts of Mexico. While drug violence is uncommon in Puebla, it has seen a spate of mob lynchings of crime suspects.
