"Third priest found dead in Mexico City" Associated Press December 27, 2014
MEXICO CITY — A priest was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head, his diocese said Friday, marking the latest in a series of abductions, attacks, and highway robberies against Roman Catholic clerics in an area of southern Guerrero state dominated by drug cartels.
Rev. Gregorio Lopez Gorostieta is the third Catholic priest to have been killed in the region this year.
The motive in Lopez Gorostieta’s killing remains unclear. Lopez Gorostieta was apparently kidnapped by a gang early Monday; his truck was found abandoned two days later.
