The police investigation into last week's massacre is well underway.

An earthquake measuring 4.4 on the Richter Scale with an epicenter six kilometers northeast of Jocotepec was recorded at 10.07 p.m. on Thursday, May 17.

Police investigating last week’s massacre of 18 people from the Chapala area discovered more human remains in a safe house in Riberas del Pilar on Monday.

Around 500 Chapala residents led a peace march on Sunday night in response to the dumping of 18 disfigured bodies in Ixtlahuacan last Wednesday.

City government work crews this week completed the bulk of the makeover of the pedestrian walkways along Chapala’s central avenue, leaving everything ready for the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE), Telmex and local businesses to kick in on the last stage of the project.

Friends of Ixtlahuacan restaurant owner Francisco Ricardo Vargas Garcia, who was shot and killed on April 30, want the community to know that the family has re-opened their popular Cinco Potrillos restaurant.
