<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At least 14 people died and another 13 were injured during an armed attack on a state <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/prisons" target="_blank" rel="noopener">prison</a> in the Mexican border city of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/mexico" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Juarez</a> on Sunday. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">According to the Chihuahua state prosecutor&#8217;s office, attackers descended on the Cereso state prison in armed vehicles around 7 a.m. and opened fire on guards, Fox News </span><a href="https://www.foxnews.com/world/mexican-border-prison-attack-leaves-people-dead-more-dozen-injured" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. The prosecutor&#8217;s office said that 10 guards were killed along with three inmates before Mexican soldiers and police regained control of the prison around noon. At least 24 prisoners escaped during the incident.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Five men were arrested, and three suspected attackers were killed after a </span><a href="https://www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/local/juarez/2023/01/01/juarez-cereso-prison-riot-erupts-new-years-day-violence/69770107007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">police chase</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and shootout, </span><a href="https://www.ktsm.com/local/el-paso-news/24-inmates-reportedly-escape-from-cereso-prison-in-juarez/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">according</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to Juarez Mayor Cruz Perez Cuellar. Some inmates reportedly stole vehicles in the city after busting out of prison. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Cereso state prison is </span><a href="https://www.npr.org/2023/01/01/1146519067/prison-riot-juarez-mexico-cereso" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">considered</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> one of Latin America’s most dangerous institutions. Government officials say it is controlled by an organized crime group that has ordered attacks in Juarez from inside the facility. Sunday’s assault was pinned on rival gangs, a common theme in the Mexican city that experiences constant violence as drug cartels fight for control of the critical border town just south of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-more-than-1000-migrants-cross-border-into-el-paso-overnight" target="_blank" rel="noopener">El Paso</a>, Texas. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mexican authorities have been placed on “maximum alert” as they continue investigating who was behind the violent prison break. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The New Year’s Day prison attack follows </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/retaliation-eleven-dead-after-violence-rocks-border-town-following-cartel-prison-riot" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">a prison riot</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in Ciudad Juarez last year. Eleven people died in August when two drug cartels started a prison riot that sparked shootings and unrest in the city, eventually spreading to other communities. The Los Mexicles and Sinaloa cartels were the two groups involved. Both are linked to the infamous drug lord “El Chapo” Guzman. </span></p>
