Secretary of Health warns families on violence
(Mexico City) At the conclusion of the sixth race-walk for Family Day, José Ángel Córdova Villalobos, Secretary of Health, acknowledged that the images presented in the media of people who have died because of the violence can become common and seen as natural. He warned it is dangerous to allow this to happen, especially with the young. These images are not the real Mexico, and it must be remembered there is a Mexico that is fighting and struggling.

Forest fire burns forest preserve
(Tegucigalpa, Honduras) An arson-caused 2 day fire has burned 150 hectares, or about 371 acres, near the eastern part of the Honduran capital. Fire authorities said it was intentional, as it wasn’t hot enough for one to start otherwise. The forest preserve is an important source of water, providing 30 per cent of the drinking water for the 1.6 million inhabitants of the capital.
