What is happening

What the sources report

Mexican authorities are investigating the death of a 7-year-old girl with American citizenship, as there are suspicions that she was hit by police gunfire during an operation in the state of Tamaulipas.[1]

The incident took place on 29 October in Matamoros, near the border with the United States, when security forces moved in to remove roadblocks set up by armed men.[1]

It is being examined whether the child was hit by gunfire from police officers who were aboard a helicopter.[2]

Tamaulipas state prosecutor Jesus Govea told the Milenio network that the investigation is ongoing and that the police officers under scrutiny remain free for the time being.[1]

A second child from the family, aged 13, was also injured in the shooting.[1]

Where they differ

According to the prosecutor, the police officers claimed they opened fire in response to an attack they had come under from a roadblock, as ERT News reports.[1]

Newsbeast reports that police officers said they opened fire in retaliation for an "attack" they had come under from a roadblock.[3]

According to ERT News, the girl's mother claims that a helicopter followed their vehicle and that they began to come under fire after her husband got out to tell the police that they were civilians with children.[1]
