The mayor of the violent border city of Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, says he fears a shooting that killed 16 students at a party may have been random.

Mayor Jose Reyes Ferriz says he bases his fears on the belief that the victims were “good kids” with no apparent ties to drug gangs.

The chihuahua state attorney general’s office says the death toll of the weekend massacre in one of the deadliest cities in the world rose to 16 after three more victims died at hospitals.

The young people were gathered to watch a boxing match Saturday night when two trucks drove up loaded with armed men who opened fire. Some people were shot as they tried to flee; their bodies were found near neighboring homes.

The victims’ ages ranged from 15 to 20.
