Relatives say at least 9 members of American family killed in Mexico, many of them kids

Mexico City — Relatives say at least nine U.S. citizens, including six children, who live in a Mormon community in northern Mexico were killed in a shooting attack. The families said they suspect it may have been a case of mistaken identity by drug cartel gunmen.

Family members told "CBS This Morning" that the FBI has opened an investigation into the killings. It happened Monday near the town of Bavispe, about 100 miles south of the Arizona border. As many as 13 other members of La Mora — a decades-old settlement in Sonora state founded as part of an offshoot of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — were initially reported missing after the attack on a convoy of SUVs carrying community members, said a relative who asked not to be named for fear of reprisals.

The relative said he had located the burned-out, bullet-ridden SUV containing the remains of his nephew's wife and her four children, twin seven-month old babies and two other children aged 8 and 10.

We should have let Spain keep Western America and Mexico instead of liberating all the indigenous people they exploited only to have to deal with them lost now with fractured and confused histories a Language and religion not their own and a culture lost.

Northwest Woodsman: Where are the “Black Jack” Pershing’s when you need them? Not to be found in our modern, sensitive military.

Northwest Woodsman: Further, this sort of crime would once have caused outrage and the public would have demanded military action. Unfortunately, our society has been so diluted by foreign born and mostly minorities, that could never happen again.
