Well last night at 12am was the event of celebration of independence day known as "El Grito".
I stayed home with my relatives to celebrate it.
In the state of Michoacán during El Grito the Mayor got on the building's balcony to give the event, he gives it and then he rings the bell, but as he rings the bell there is a sound of an explosion which at first was confused for a fire cracker, but then there were screams of terror shortly after. It had been discovered that it was a Fragmentation granade which was what had detonated in the middle of the crowd, which killed 7 and injured 130 people.
I believe this was an attack of hatred for somebody to have done such a thing towards innocent people.
As well as that after that time, behind the City Hall there was another explosion along with another 2 blocks from the area.
The suspects have been identified but have not been found yet.

I don't have the words. This is not only a terrorist feeling but it's a sorrowful thing.
Innocent people being attacked during a celebration is an act to not only kill but to invoke fear in everybody else.
I hope these Suspects are not at large for very long.

They say that there are 2 possible causes of this attack.
It is possible that it was an act of hatred and thus a terrorist attack.
Or
A narc event, as the state of Michoacán has a large reputation for the large amounts of narcotics traffic in many areas of the state.

Acts of terror are just acts of cowardness. Show yourself if you have the courage to attack someone.
Hopefully that's the end of it and it's a few nut-jobs and not a network of more trouble to come.
