A dog was captured waiting for his owner, who was killed! However, killing journalists is something that happens profusely in Mexico!
Fortunately for one journalist, his attacker’s weapon malfunctioned, and he was saved before being shot! Cordero Garca, the 47-year-old director general of the online news site CGNoticias, said he was told he would be killed like a dog!
Thankfully, he was saved by a miracle when the bullet from his assailant’s gun fell out! Fortunately, the attacker was apprehended after a large crowd gathered to assist the journalist by holding him until the National Guard arrived!
In the event of an emergency, the journalist was given a panic button and enrolled in the “mechanism,” a federal program designed to protect journalists. The state prosecutor’s office in Quintana Roo has also launched an investigation.
We hope that cases like this do not recur, as four Mexican journalists were murdered in January! Take a look at the video below.
