Armed people attacked a restaurant in Puerto Vallarta leaving one woman dead and five people injured.
The attack took place at the Punto 18 restaurant bar, located in Las Juntas.
Witnesses said a group of people burst into the establishment and opened fire on the restaurant bar. Later they fired towards the tables where other clients were.
The gunmen left the bar and fired against the facade and escaped in several unidentified vehicles.
The clients got up from their tables and started running in different directions to try to protect themselves. Some managed to evade the bullets, others were hit and fell between the tables.
Soon after, police, military, and paramedics arrived, who found several people shot.
The rescuers confirmed the death of a 38-year-old woman, identified as María Elena T, a neighbor of the Las Juntas delegation.
