Gunmen wearing police officer uniforms kill 12 in Honduras pool hall

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras – Authorities say that assailants armed with AK-47 assault rifles burst into a pool hall in Honduras' capital and opened fire, killing at least 12 people and wounding three others.

Police spokesman Edgardo Barahona said at least three of the five attackers were wearing police uniforms and bullet-proof vests in Saturday's attack in Tegucigalpa's violent northern 1 de Diciembre neighborhood. The victims ranged in age from 19 to 30.


Police said the pool hall was controlled by the Barrio 18 gang and there were about 30 people in it at the time. No arrests have been made.

The massacre took place a year after a similar shooting in a nearby pool hall left five people dead.

Honduras is plagued by gang and cartel violence, and has among world's highest murder rates.....
 
Too bad that happened, but it did. Myself, I would choose to condemn the Barrio 18 gang, not the place where the violence took place. Places & guns don't kill people, people kill people.

The world needs to condemn this kind of action & start by contacting the authorities & turn the names in of these kind of people among us, everywhere.

Guns don't kill people, a lack of oxygen to the brain kills people.
 
Hope none of the bullets hit the tables, and I really hope they weren't diamonds...

But seriously the gang is probably to blame for people being killed in their pool hall.
