“CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico - A Mexican state police commander who was appointed three months ago to replace allegedly corrupt authorities was slain by unidentified assailants who opened fire on his car, authorities said Monday.

Marcos Arturo Nazar Contreras, 45, was shot late Sunday, and was later found slumped over the wheel of his Jeep Liberty, said Claudia Banuelos, a spokeswoman for the attorney general’s office in Ciudad Juarez, a violence-wracked city of 1.3 million across from El Paso, Texas.”
