At least six people were killed, and 26 others were wounded in Northern Mexico after three gunmen stormed a party early on Friday and opened fire on partygoers.
Two of the deceased were under 18 years old, and five of the injured were children in the attack that occurred in the city of Ciudad Obregon in the border state of Sonora.
Among those hospitalised, four were reported to be in critical condition at local hospitals, while 13 others were treated and released, news agency AP reported.
According to police, the shooting incident was an attack on a suspected cartel member who was wanted for homicide and other charges. The suspected cartel member tried to flee but was killed, officials said.
While three attackers charged into the party, the fourth gunman was already at the venue, as per police statements. The attackers managed to escape.
