Now the facts...


The shootout was over 7 miles south from El Rosario, in the desert, not in town... NO TOURISTS HURT.

This from BajaCactus:

Shootout at Km 73.5 south of El Rosario. A private vehicle was shot... 3 policemen involved... 2 injured... 1 dead. An American couple arrived after the shootout and transported an injured policeman to El Rosario... No civilian were injured. Desert Hawks deployed paramedics and volunteers to assist... Injured police were treated and sent to a major hospital in Col. Vicente Guerrero. I just realized we need to find a couple of bulletproof vests to have in the ambulances and wear in this cases. Many police forces arrived to El Rosario... Military, marines, federal police, state police, municipal police... Everyone. All our Hawks are safely back to base.

Why are ambulance drivers requesting armor? Are bad hombres targeting more than law enforement?

Methinks threat level III vests might be good for everyday stuff, but you are gonna need some shock trauma ballistic plates to stop a 7.62x39 or a .223

And yeah, it might be a problem getting them across the border. Wouldn't want to get checked by Aduana

While I know there is only one expert here, the first reports had a tourist injured. I suspect as someone else has said...there is more to this story to come out.

When I brought a couple down I put them flat in the trunk, covered them with a Harbor Freight moving pad, then put suitcases and an ice chest on top....and got pulled in. Looked in the trunk and ice chest, then sent on my way........second time was another story

By Baja Cactus: "I just realized we need to find a couple of bulletproof vests to have in the ambulances and wear in this cases."(highlighting mine).

Goathead, just what the hell are you a professor of? Sure ain't common sense, or spell-check for that matter... the word is 'enforCement', oh scholar.

Having been an EMT I can speak for myself that if I were on a call with a potential shooter threat I'd want a vest, no doubt. Maybe a couple of 'em. Anyone in a uniform is fair game to nut-jobs with a gun, they're equal opportunity shooters.




I don't have a BUCKET LIST, but I do have a F***- IT LIST a mile long!

I think dk repeated info from the ambulance. And the tb eyewitness acount was from someone that left the scene before ambulance arrived.
Eyewitness accounts are often conflicting.
This may be a case where alternative facts are each indeed factual.


(OMG! Am i defending dk?!?!?!?)

Eyewitness...took the injured to the clinic. Ambulance got there after the injured had been transported. DK's bold heading "now for the facts". Guess he jumped the gun.

Eyewitness said it involved a heAd-on collision. Does eyewitness know spanish? Maybe it was a car accident and no shooting?
Seems all versions of story are incomplete.
We'll probably never know...
