It all started when two trucks with soldiers on board patrolled the streets of Nuevo Laredo. Suddenly, when one of the vehicles moved ahead, the second unit was at the mercy of the gunmen, who began shooting incessantly.

Immediately the military elements took refuge in the back of their truck and repelled the attack. In the video you can see several units moving at high speed, in which, apparently, the hit men were traveling.

The images began to circulate on social networks and quickly went viral. Some users and internet sites even reported that the armed clash was between soldiers and members of the Northeast Cartelwhose base of operations is precisely the state of Tamaulipas.

In the video you can see the impact of the bullets just one meter from where the members of the army were sheltering. In one part of the clip one of the soldiers shouts: “Shoot at the tires”.
