20 killed in gunbattles in north Mexico
2007-05-17
Police killed 15 armed assailants in a fierce gunbattle just south of the Arizona border on Wednesday after tracking a group of gunmen who killed five policemen into the nearby hills.

About 40 assailants, whose tactics and weaponry resembled those of Mexico's powerful drug gangs, drove into the town of Cananea, 20 miles south of the U.S. border, in up to 15 vehicles and seized four policemen in two patrol cars, Sonora state police said in a statement.
