Gunmen have killed eight patients and injured six others in a drug rehabilitation centre in Mexico.
The shootings are believed to be part of a drug gang feud in the northern border city of Ciudad Juarez.
The hooded gunmen, all wearing body armour, reportedly burst into the drug-and-alcohol rehabilitation centre, dragged the patients to the patio and shot them.
At least 40 people have been killed in drug cartel-related violence in the city this week.
It takes the total number of deaths in Ciudad Juarez this year to 795.
