MEXICO CITY (AP) — Four people died during an armed attack that occurred in a bar in the northern city of Chihuahua, state authorities said Saturday.

The attack occurred on Friday night in a bar in the Concordia neighborhood of Chihuahua, capital of the state of the same name, where armed men arrived and began shooting at those who were in the premises.

The state Attorney General’s Office reported in a statement Saturday that four people died in the attack, but did not offer details.
