On October 2, 16-year-old Ricardo was executed at point-blank range by two hitmen riding a motorcycle.
The execution took place in Tapachula, Chiapas. In a video circulating on the social network X, you can see that Ricardo was running from two hitmen wearing motorcycle helmets, but he was finally intercepted, they took his cell phone and a backpack and threw him to the ground.
Once he was on the ground, one of the hitmen executed him with a long weapon at point-blank range. The 16-year-old Ricardo was left lying on the ground. In another video, you can see Ricardo's father crying, hugging his son's body.
Witnesses said that Ricardo was executed because minutes before he recorded the same hitmen executing a man a few blocks from where they intercepted him. So far, this version is not confirmed, but it is the most accurate version, since at first the authorities had said that his death had been the result of a stray bullet.
