At least 21 people died Monday afternoon and nine were injured after a nearly one-hour confrontation between alleged members of the Sinaloa cartel against members of the Jalisco and Gulf cartels, allies in this region of the country, in the community of Tlachichila , located between the municipal capitals of Nochistlán and Jalpa.
The state government and the Secretariat of Public Security of Zacatecas remained silent about armed clashes, despite the fact that versions and testimonies were disseminated on social networks about the magnitude of the confrontation.
State, federal and military police who came to protect the area and support the experts of the Attorney General of Zacatecas recovered more than 5,000 AK-47 rifle shells, as well as dozens of magazines for long and short weapons, including of Barret rifle .50 caliber.
Military, state and federal government sources confirmed that the confrontation began around 2:30 p.m. at the east exit of the Tlachichila community.
They said that after the shooting, the bodies of at least 20 hitmen were left in its wake. It is presumed that the gunmen took away more bodies. In the hospital of Nochistlán, five injured and four arrested by the National Guard (GN) in Jalpa were treated.
The detonations of the rifles and fragmentation grenades were heard miles around, at least to the communities of Huiscolco, Las Presitas and El Caquixtle, whose inhabitants recorded the action with their cell phones.
The GN arrested seven heavily armed men between 24 and 35 years of age on Allende and Rosales streets in the municipal capital of Juchipila when they fled the scene in a Chevrolet Silverado pick-up truck . Four of the hitmen were shot.
Skirmishes between criminal cells in Tlachichila continued for about an hour and resumed after military and police left the area.
