Police reported he had been shot in the back, recovered a .38‑caliber shell casing, and seized a blue Toyota Tacoma pickup near the scene. The state Attorney General’s Office and local police are investigating the crime. On 30 July, a bomb‑laden vehicle detonated against a municipal police patrol in Luis Moya, Zacatecas, killing one officer and wounding two. Hours later, state and federal forces repelled an armed ambush in Calera, killing five assailants, seizing eight long‑range weapons and three vehicles.
