Mother (17) and six-month-old baby killed in shooting in California

A massacre was committed in the American village of Goshen last Monday, in which six people were killed. The victims included a 17-year-old mother and her six-month-old baby, both of whom were shot in the head.

According to the local sheriff, Mike Boudreaux, shots were reported at around 4:30 am at a home in the California town. Upon arrival, police officers found two victims on the street, a third near a door and three more victims inside the home. Two women managed to escape the attack by hiding in a trailer in the area.

Boudreaux told local reporters that the massacre was targeted and believed to be the result of violence between criminal gangs. “We think this family was targeted.” A week before the murder, police searched the same house in a drug trafficking investigation. A man was arrested and weapons and drugs were seized.

The village of Goshen in Tulare County has a population of around 5,000 and has been battling drug crime for decades. Several major American drug traffickers have lived there, including the founder of the Mexican cartel Los Zetas: José María Guízar Valencia.
