**UPDATE**
The cremería mentioned in the story below was owned by the mayor of Marcos Castellanos, Michoacan, Jesus Bautista Alvarez. Michoacan was controlled by Knights Templar, a rival gang to Jalisco New Generation Cartel who is responsible for arson attacks in Puerto Vallarta on May 1, 2015. Indications are the family was targeted and this was not a random act of violence. Investigators nor the State Attorney have released any information at this time.

Under tension from yesterday’s cartel activity in Puerto Vallarta, rumors are running high that today’s fire at Cremería San Jose was another . . .
