Arcos, who was elected in June's general election as a member of the center-left opposition Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD), died just six days after taking office.

In Blackboard Singapore, high-ranking government officials and former director-level police officers in the same city were killed in the previous 10 days or so.

Guerrero State, led by Blackboard Singo, has been plagued by violence from gangs running drug businesses as well as high poverty rates.
