Violence in Sonora has claimed the life of another child.
On Sunday night, gunmen attacked a vehicle in Ciudad Obregon, killing two men in the longstanding violence hotspot in southern Sonora.
A young girl was a passenger in the vehicle and later died of her wounds, according to a state release. Ingrid Miosoty was reportedlyjust 2 years old.
Sonoran authorities said that drug use and sales were at play in what they described as a targeted attack, and denounced the danger the young girl had been put in.
In December, a young boy was killed during an eruption of violence near the Sonoran border city of San Luis Rio Colorado.
The Sonoran Citizens Security Committee sent out a tweetdemanding justice for Ingrid Miosoty's murder, and shared that in 2022, 44 minors were murdered in the state.
