Mexican prison guards shot dead
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4193671.stm

Six Mexican prison guards have been found shot dead outside one of the country's maximum security prisons.

Their bodies were discovered outside the Matamoros Penitentiary, on Mexico's northern border with Texas.

This comes after a government crackdown on prisons over fears that drug gangs wield too much power inside jails.

The corpses of the six prison guards were found inside a vehicle riddled with bullet holes just 1km from the prison watchtower.
