Suspected drug hitmen shot and critically wounded a mayor-elect in Mexico on Friday, marking the second attack on a public official in less than 24 hours. Ricardo Solis, the recently elected mayor of the small town of Gran Morelos in the northern state of Chihuahua, was shot in the head and chest by gunmen who drove up in two SUVs, the local attorney general's office said. Solis was immediately taken to a hospital, his bleeding head bound as he lay on a stretcher and was placed in an ambulance. "He remains in a delicate condition," said a spokesman at the attorney general's office. On Thursday, armed men killed the mayor of a town outside Mexico's northern busi-ness city of Monterrey as he drove to his ranch in the town of Doctor Gonzalez, about 48 kilometers east of Monterrey in Nuevo Leon state.
