Gunmen Kill 10 in North Mexico Beer Hall: Official
Monterrey, Mexico: Gunmen stormed a beer hall in northern Mexico on Friday, killing 10 people in broad daylight in a suburb of the industrial city of Monterrey, authorities said.

Several armed men arrived in two vehicles before attacking people inside the bar in the municipality of Garcia at around 3:00 pm, an official in the state prosecutor's office said.

The assailants stripped seven bodies naked and left with 10,000 pesos ($650) in cash, the official said on condition of anonymity.

"Seven died at the scene of the attack and three more (succumbed to their wounds) in a hospital," said Nuevo Leon state security spokesman Jorge Domene.

Local police and soldiers rushed to the scene of the attack, which was cordoned off.
