ACAPULCO, Mexico — Eight people were killed in Acapulco on a particularly bloody Sunday for Mexico’s violence-plagued Pacific coast resort city, while at least 12 bodies were found in a clandestine grave elsewhere in southern Guerrero state. “It was a horrible day,” said Roberto Alvarez, security spokesman for Guerrero state, which is home to Acapulco. On Sunday afternoon, gunmen killed two men two blocks from the same central avenue where the police chase had taken place earlier. Elsewhere in Guerrero, state authorities reported six burned bodies, six skulls and two sets of bones were found in the municipality of Copanatoyac. Alvarez, the state security spokesman, said the remains found in the clandestine body-dumping ground might represent between 12 and 14 people.
