Overview
- A masked attack at Escuela Secundaria General No. 13 in Ejido La Unión killed the school's subdirectora and wounded three people during the class change on Thursday morning.
- Two 18-year-old brothers who previously attended the school were detained at the scene and remain in the custody of ministerial authorities as probable responsables.
- Early pericial inspections point to use of bladed weapons and explosive-type devices such as petards or Molotov-style objects with no confirmed use of firearms so far.
- Neighbors and school staff intervened to restrain the suspects while students were sheltered in classrooms and the injured were taken to hospital, one in serious condition.
- The federal Gabinete de Seguridad and the Secretaría de Educación Pública condemned the attack and are coordinating with the Fiscalía of Coahuila as investigators process the scene and interview witnesses to determine motive and charges.
