Hello, This is my cousin Alonso and his dad Adolfo Martinez. Yesterday afternoon, they were victims of the horrific gang violence in Mexico and were shot and killed in their mechanic shop. They were not the only victims, There was Esteban, the oldest son, 26 years old, who was shot and rushed to the hospital. He is now in the ICU fighting for his life, we were told he needs surgery to remove the bullet but he is at risk of losing his eye. The other oldest son Alejandro, 24 years old, was also present at the attack, he was not physically hurt but had to watch this horrific event play out. Alonso was just days away from his 17th birthday, as well as his dad from his 50th.

I ask that you please help my aunt Maria Del Carmen Reyna with anything you can, she lost her husband as well as her youngest son, and now has to worry about  funeral expenses as well as Esteban’s medical bills. Everything donated will be sent to her via western union. 

Hola, este es mi primo Alonso y su papá Adolfo Martinez. Ayer por la tarde fueron víctimas de la terrible violencia de las pandillas en México y fueron asesinados a tiros en su taller mecánico. No fueron las únicas víctimas, estuvo Esteban, el hijo mayor, de 26 años, quien recibió un disparo y fue trasladado de urgencia al hospital. Ahora se encuentra en la UCI luchando por su vida. Y el otro hijo mayor, Alejandro, de 24 años, no resultó herido físicamente pero tuvo que presenciar este horrible suceso. Alonso estaba a pocos días de cumplir 17 años, al igual que su padre de cumplir 50 años. Les pido que por favor ayuden a mi tía en todo lo que puedan, ella perdió a su esposo y a su hijo menor y ahora tiene que preocuparse por los gastos del funeral y las facturas médicas de Esteban.
