Reporting from Mexico City —
Gunmen stormed a party in the border city of Ciudad Juarez and opened fire, killing at least 13 people and wounding 14 others, authorities said Saturday.
The Friday night shooting carried grim echoes of an attack on a Juarez teen party in January that left 15 people dead and raised a national outcry.
In the latest case, authorities said a group of men armed with assault rifles burst into the party, which was being held in two adjacent homes in a neighborhood called Horizontes del Sur.

The attackers opened fire "in an indiscriminate manner," said Carlos Gonzalez, spokesman for the prosecutor's office in the state of Chihuahua. Investigators found signs of more than 70 shots fired.
The victims who had been identified were between 16 and 25. A 9-year-old boy was among the wounded.
The Diario de Juarez newspaper reported on its website that one of the party-goers managed to flee, but was chased down and shot dead between a pair of parked cars.
Officials did not immediately offer a possible motive for the attack, the second time in a week that gunmen have fired upon a house party in Juarez. On Oct. 17, attackers killed nine people at a home near the city's airport.
The state prosecutor, Carlos Manuel Salas, was in Juarez to oversee the investigation, his office said.
