Puerto Rico Assailants Killed 2, Injured 13
Puerto Rico assailants killed two people and injured 13 after indiscriminately firing outside a bar during a birthday party. Police said Monday that the assailants were targeting just one man who is their rival in drug trafficking, AP News reported.
According to the police, the target of the Puerto Rico assailants was Luis E. Guzmán González, 28, who was killed outside the Piel Kanela bar in San Juan. He had escaped earlier attempts of assassination attacks in connection to drug trafficking cases.
In an interview, Col. Roberto Rivera told The Associated Press that the Puerto Rico assailants allegedly opened fire early Sunday.
Luis Hernández Martinez, 72, was also killed by the Puerto Rico assailants since he was at the scene when they fire their guns. According to police authorities, all of the other victims were bystanders.
Eight people were being treated in hospitals for wounds suffered in the attack, and five had been treated and released.

Puerto Rico Assailants Remain at Large
No arrests have been made in the weekend shooting caused by the Puerto Rico assailants.
The investigators who reviewed the security camera footage said that one vehicle drove past the bar and determined the target while the occupants of two other vehicles opened fire.
According to Gov. Pedro Pierluisi, the Sunday morning attack was “hard,” but assured that the police investigators would solve the case noting that under his administration, 57 fewer people have been killed in the violence, compared to last year.
The auxiliary commander of investigation, Rivera, who has 38 years of experience in the Puerto Rico police, said that criminals have ditched a previous unwritten code not to shoot targets when they’re with relatives.
