CIUDAD JUAREZ, MEXICO (BNO NEWS) — At least six people were killed, including a woman, when hitmen stormed into a wake on late Thursday in Ciudad Juarez, officials said on Friday.

At least five people were also injured, according to a spokesman for the Mexican Federal Police, when the gunmen stormed the wake and opened fire against the mourners at a private home at 11:00 p.m. local time.

There was no word on age or identify of the victims from Chihuahua state prosecutors on Friday afternoon.
