8. The Spreading Drug War
8.扩大的毒品战争
In what local police spokesman Donald Gonzalez told Reuters was the "worst massacre we have seen in modern times," some 200 gunmen in May attacked the town of Caserio La Bomba, which lies in northern Guatemala near the border with Mexico. The raiders, believed to be members of Mexico's notorious Zetas drug cartel, killed 25 men and two women, beheading most of their victims. And while such carnage has become frighteningly common in Mexico, the Guatemala attack was a gruesome indicator that the narco wars have spread across Mexican borders. Guatemalan authorities have spent months trying to expel the Zetas, but reports indicate that entire regions of the country are still under the cartel's control.
在一起当地警察部门发言人Donald Gonzalez告知路透社,称其为“当今时代中我们所见过最恶劣的大屠杀事件中,约200名枪手在五月发生在Caserio La Bomba镇的一起冲突中遭到袭击,这个镇位于和墨西哥相邻的危地马拉北部靠近两国边境的地区。人们确信袭击者是墨西哥臭名昭著的Zetas 贩毒集团的成员,他们杀害了25名男子和两名女子,大部分被害人被斩首。尽管这样的大屠杀在墨西哥已经令人震惊的成为普遍现象,发生在危地马拉的袭击还是令人毛骨悚然的表明毒品战争已经跨越了墨西哥边境。危地马拉当局用数月的时间试图肃清Zetas贩毒集团,但是报告显示该国全境已落入该贩毒集团的魔爪控制之下。
