Mexico City, Mexico, Oct 22, 2018 / 10:59 am
An auxiliary policeman was shot and killed Sunday defending the home of Cardinal Norberto Rivera, the retired Archbishop of Mexico City.
The guard died on his way to hospital shortly after the shooting on Oct. 21. The cardinal was home during the attack but is reported to be safe and unharmed by the incident.
According to the Associated Press, the shooting was not an attempt on the cardinal's life, but has been presumed to be an attempted robbery.
The guard had been approached by two unknown attackers, who were pretending to deliver a package. After the suspects rang the doorbell, the guard opened the door and was shot.
