Guatemalan bar attack leaves 11 people dead 8 September 2013 Last updated at 18:03 A group of armed men in Guatemala has killed 11 people and wounded another 15 in an attack at a bar in the remote town of San Jose Nacahuil. Some of the victims were found dead after they tried to hide in the liquor store's bathrooms and nearby alleys. The motive is not clear, but Guatemalan police are investigating the possible involvement of the country's notorious criminal gangs, or maras. Guatemala has one of the highest homicide rates in Latin America. The attack took place on Saturday night. No arrests have been made. The group escaped in a car it seized from someone who lived near the bar. The vehicle was found abandoned outside the town, which can only be accessed by dirt road. Local newspaper Prensa Libre reported that a gang had been expelled from the liquor store shortly before the attack. They are said to have returned, wearing balaclavas, to shoot randomly at those at the bar. Nothing like this had ever happened before. We have never seen a massacre like this," said Nacahuil resident Victor Tepen. His 20-year-old nephew, Javier Tepen, was among the dead in the attack.
