Recently elected Mexico mayor is shot dead in the head inside bus by his assassins in popular resort city
A mayor-elect was assassinated on a bus in the Mexican resort city of Acapulco early Monday morning.
Retired Navy captain Salvador Villalba, 53, was returning from a meeting with military officials in Mexico City when gunmen intercepted the bus, the Guerrero State Attorney General's Office said.
Milenio news outlet reported that three assailants pulled the driver out of the bus and assaulted him.
Two of the suspects then entered the vehicle and went seat by seat searching for Villalba until they were able to match him with a photo they had of him on a smart phone before shooting him four times.
A woman who was on the bus was also struck by the gunfire and rushed to a local hospital, where she is recovering and in stable condition.

At least 34 political candidates were murdered leading up to the June 2 elections in Mexico, according to human rights organization Data Civica. However, the administration of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador only registered 23 homicides.
Villalba decided to seek office after his friend, Jesús González, leader of the Ecological Green Party of Mexico, was murdered in June 2023 after he came forward with accusations that Mayor Guadalupe García, Villalba's cousin, had threatened him with violence if he did not clear the way for her preferred public office candidates.
Milenio news outlet reported that Villalba was offered money to drop out of the race at the beginning of his campaign, but declined to do so.
He ran under the Mexico Advances Movement party and beat out Morena candidate José Chávez, obtaining 39 percent of the vote.
Villalba had two federal police officers assigned to his security detail, but the protection was only valid while traveling inside the state of Guerrero.

Retired Navy captain Salvador Villalba was offered money to cut his campaign short, but declined to do so and then was elected mayor of the southern Mexico town of Copala
On Sunday, the Copala mayor-elect took to Facebook to share a series of pictures and videos of him and his dad to commemorate Father's Day.
His last post thanked supporters for electing him as mayor.
'The people accompany me and I will not fail them,' he declared.
His brother, Jesús Villalba, called on President López Obrador to ensure that the attackers are arrested and prosecuted.
'We don't know how it happened, how everything was handled so that my brother's life was taken,' Jesús Villalba told local news outlet Prensa Libre de la Costa. 'He was a person who had a goal and thank God he achieved it, he won, I don't understand why deprive him of his life.
'If he was going to work well or poorly, they should have let him, but they should not have taken his life.'
