The Canadian Press: 2 alleged leaders of Mexican student gang shot to death in tourist zone of Oaxaca: "Two alleged leaders of a university student gang were shot to death Friday by gunmen on a motorcycle in the tourist zone of Mexico's colonial city of Oaxaca.
The killings occurred in front of the former convent of Santo Domingo, a popular tourist attraction in downtown Oaxaca.
The men's bodies lay on a sidewalk in front of the colonial-era building for some time after the attack. The gunmen fled and have not been identified.
Unidentified assailants wounded another prominent member of the gang Friday, but did not kill him.
The gang was accused of attacking anti-government protesters in 2006.
Oaxaca has largely been spared drug violence plaguing much of Mexico, but suffered anti-government political unrest in 2006.
And in the northern city of Chihuahua, unidentified assailants killed four employees of a bar, state prosecutors' spokesman Fidel Banuelos said.
The bar, located at the centre, was about to open for business for the first time."
