Masked men broke into a drug rehabilitation center in Cuidad Juarez and mowed down recovering drug addicts and alcoholics. Eighteen were killed and two seriously injured. It was the third rehab attack in Juarez.
Juárez had the most violent month in its history in August, with at least 326 killings, almost half the murders in all of Mexico. Juárez, Mexico’s most violent city in 2008 with 1,600 killings, may exceed that figure in 2009.
