Unofficial reports of more gunfire throughout the weekend are coming out of Nuevo Laredo.
The warnings are out of social networks at this point, but the following is a run down of what people have reported so far.
Intense shootouts were reported early as this morning, between 2:00 AM and 5:00 AM.
People saying back to back gunfire occurred, as well as explosions in the areas of Issste, Infonavit, Benito Juarez and Carretera Nacional. That’s where they’re also saying abandoned cars were also found.
Then Saturday afternoon, more gun battles. This time by the airport by Carretera Mex-2.
They are not reporting if there were fatalities, or any injured.
As of now authorities have not released any official confirmations of the shootouts so far.
