The militant shot two major assistants to the mayor Clara Bruga.
Private Secretary of the mayor Simen Guzman and Bouch Advisor Jose Munos were killed on the way to work on Tuesday morning local time.
Witnesses said the armed man first opened fire on the gooseman, who stopped the car near the busy avenue to pick up a colleague, and then on Munosa, who was going to get into the Guzman car for their morning drive.
It is estimated that the militant escaped on a motorcycle and had at least one accomplice. The possible motive of the murder is still unknown, but the attack is the latest in a series of murder of local politicians across the country.
The Bouch mayor was noticeably upset during the press conference when she remembered how she “shared dreams and struggles” with her two helpers over the years that they worked for it.
She said she guaranteed that the killings would not be unpunished.
President Claudia Sheinbaum reported firing during his daily morning press conference Minister Omar Garcia Harfih, who had been the purpose of armed ambushes in the past.
President Sheinbaum called it a “stinging incident” and suggested the mayor of the bastard, which comes from the same party as the president, all the support she might need.
Police seized a motorcycle and another vehicle, which, in their opinion, was used as a result of the attack, while the forensic inspected the bake car Guzman.
CCROS CCTVs from the nearby building show that a man carried a motorcycle helmet in one hand, and in the other gun he approaches the Guzman car from the front.
It shoots through the windshield, and then shoots Munoso before shooting again.
When he escapes, he turns and shoots another shot into Munos, which crashes on the sidewalk.
Last June, Burga, 61, was elected Mexico Mayor. The position is considered the second most powerful in the country after the presidency.
While local politicians, especially Mary of small cities, are often sent to Mexico, attacks on politicians in the capital more unusual.
One of the high -profile exceptions is the ambush in 2020, Garcia Harfuh, who at the time was the head of the Mexico police.
More than two dozen militants opened a fire by their car and killed two of their guards and a passerby in one of the most brazen attacks that took place in the city.
Garcia Harfuh hit three times, but survived and became Minister of Security of Mexico last October.
He said the Jalisco New Generation, one of the most powerful criminal groups of Mexico, was behind this incident.
Investigators have not yet said who, in their opinion, was behind the murder of two assistants, but the security experts say that the deliberate and accurate way that the militant manages is indicating that he is a professional striker.
