The newly-elected Minister of Tourism for Jalisco, a western-Mexican state, was killed by gunmen on Saturday afternoon. Jose de Jesus Gallegos’s vehicle was stopped by armed men in the state capital of Guadalajara, and shot to death with a pistol. He had only been in office for a week, and the shooting was supposedly related to his business activities. Violence in Guadalajara has intensified since the 2010 death of drug boss Ignacio ‘Nacho’ Coronel, who was killed in the same upscale neighborhood.
