Wednesday, November 27, 2024 - This is the moment a gunman stormed a wedding reception just as the bride was about to toss her bouquet.
The party quickly turned into a nightmare after one guest
was shot dead and two others were left injured.
The suspects, believed to be from an armed gang, showed up
in five vans at the venue in Mexico on Saturday, Nov. 23.
They then stormed the building in an attempt to kidnap one
of the guests, Vladimir Zúñiga Calzada.
Horror footage shows the bride standing on a chair with
her new husband as a gunman enters the hall and grabs a guest from the dance
floor.
He is seen trying to lead the man away by his tie as the
confused cameraperson says: “What has happened?”
The shooting took place at Casino del Pueblo in the city of
Jalapa, located some 186 miles east of Mexico City.
At least five gunmen entered the hall to seize the victim on
the dance floor.
When Vladimir resisted being bundled into a van, he was shot
at the scene, according to reports.
At least two others were also injured during the attack.
Jalapa mayor, José Manuel Hernández Pérez, said: “There was
an act of violence committed by several people, over five reported, at the city
casino.
“They were heavily armed and gunshots were fired, resulting
in three people being injured.
“One was seriously wounded and lost his life.”
He said the area is currently cordoned off and under
surveillance as security agencies investigate the shooting.
The mayor added: “We are fully and absolutely supporting the
affected families, hoping to provide information to them.
“We hope that our land will soon recover the peace we so
desperately need.
“God bless our land and our people.”
In a press conference, the deputy prosecutor of the State
Attorney General's Office said the victim was suspected of being involved in
illegal activities, including human trafficking.
The investigation continues.
