MEXICO CITY (AP) — Four people have been killed in a shootout with security forces in the Mexican border city of Matamoros, triggering an alert to shelter in place from the U.S. consulate in the city across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, Texas. The Tamaulipas state communications office said via X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, that the clash occurred Monday during an operation related to the investigation of a kidnapping. It said four civilians were killed. Authorities recovered guns and radios. No marines were injured. The Navy confirmed that its personnel were involved, but did not provide any details.
