MEXICO-CRIME-VIOLENCE
State policemen patrol inside the ranch along the Jalisco-Michoacan highway in Tanhuato, Michoacan State, on May 23, 2015 where gunmen took cover during an intense gun battle. At least 42 people --including two police officers-- were killed in the gunfight in Mexico's troubled western state of Michoacan, in one of the bloodiest clashes in the country's drug war. Michoacan and Jalisco have endured some of the worst violence in a drug war that began to escalate in 2006, when the government deployed troops to combat cartels. More than 80,000 have been killed and another 22,000 gone missing nationwide in the past nine years. AFP PHOTO / HECTOR GUERRERO (Photo credit should read HECTOR GUERRERO/AFP via Getty Images)
