Juárez:  Sixty Five Homicides and Counting in February

**Two men riding bicycles on 16 de Septiembre yesterday afternoon were gunned down by men who got down from a car they were in and started shooting.  One was killed, the other wounded.  The attack took place in front of the Oxxo convenience store three blocks from the Shangrila and Los Arcos Restaurants.

**A man was killed late last night in a knife attack just outside Cerveceria 19, a beer joint on Teófilo Borunda and Paseo de la Victoria, across the street from the US Consular building in a tony area of town.  Apparently there was an argument within a group of several people drinking at the bar, which resulted in the attack.  Two men were arrested.  (click here for story in El Mexicano)
