A party taking place at a private residence in central Chapala on Tuesday, March 23 ended abruptly after one or more guests on the premises fired several gunshots into the air.
Law enforcement officers closed off an area in the vicinity of a Chapala residence where guns were fired during a private party that got out of hand early this week.
At 7:30 p.m., Interim Mayor Isaac Trejo posted a video message on Facebook to announce that the situation was under control and two persons were being held in custody after authorities found them in possession of firearms.
It is not yet known whether criminal charges have been pressed against either individual. No injuries were reported in what appears to have been an episode of overzealous fiesta furor.
