American officials are saying the shooting in San Luis Potosí was a
random event, not an intentional attack on American officials. Former DEA official Phil Jordan:
I wouldn't suggest that these idiots knew that they were dealing with American agents. If that was the case, it would be suicide for them.
And former American Ambassador to Mexico Tony Garza:
Yesterday's murder seems to be the work of low-level members of a cartel that were acting in a robbery or extortion attempt.
Update: And other American officials, who seem to have more firsthand knowledge of the events, are
saying the opposite.
