Multiple members of a Mexican drug cartel were killed after attacking a police station on Sunday afternoon. They were met by officers returning gunfire.

The north-central Mexican state of Guanajuato has become the bloodiest in the Mexican drug war, and Sunday, several gunmen attacked and shot at a police station in the city of Celaya. It turned bloody when police fired back at their attackers.

The president disbanded the Federal Police and created the National Guard to tackle soaring violence, but three years later, criminal cartels have expanded their reach.

Over 100 municipal police officers in Mexico's Guanajuato state have been dismissed for their alleged links to the Jalisco cartel and the Santa Rosa de Lima Cartel.
