Mayoral candidate in Xochitepec, Morelos, suffered an attack but remains unscathed
In the past week, various significant incidents have unfolded across Mexico, ranging from political events to social unrest.
On April 10th, around 10 PM, a shocking incident took place near the Santa Fe Subdivision in Xochitepec, Morelos. Rodolfo Tapia, a candidate for the mayoral position, was the target of an attack. The attackers, who used gunfire, managed to shoot at least five bullet holes into Tapia's car, striking the driver's side windshield. Remarkably, Tapia and his assistant emerged unscathed from the ordeal.
Following the attack, Tapia's car was towed to a corralón for investigation, and the authorities have initiated a search operation in the area. As of the report, neither Tapia nor the leadership of the Labor Party has issued a statement regarding the attack.
In a separate incident, an influencer was arrested in Nuevo León for sexual abuse, although no details about the identity of the individual or the nature of the abuse were provided.
Protests have been a common sight in Morelos recently, with two separate demonstrations taking place. On March 31st, protests occurred in Temixco, Morelos against Canadian company Álamos Gold Esperanza Silver. Similarly, protests took place in Cuernavaca, Morelos due to a lack of vaccines.
