A journalist in Tamaulipas was killed by an armed subject, his daughter was also injured.
The General Coordinator of Social Communication of the Presidency of the Republic, Jesús Ramírez Cuevas, erroneously reported that the journalist Antonio de la Cruz was attacked when he was accompanied by his family, that his daughter was dead and his wife injured.
This statement was changed by the official after Miguel Domínguez, editorial director of Expreso Victoria, announced that the only victims of the attack were his companion and daughter.
So at the moment, the woman’s health condition is serious.
