San Juan, November 24: Gunmen opened fire early Sunday at a bar in southeast Mexico, killing six people and injuring at least five others, according to local media reports. The shooting took place in the coastal province of Tabasco, which is struggling with a recent increase in violence.

Public Safety Secretary Omar García Harfuch said on X that the shooting happened in Villahermosa and that federal authorities are working with local officials to help solve the crime. Mexico Shooting: 10 Killed, 7 Injured After Gunmen Open Fire at Local Bar in Queretaro, 1 Arrested.
