Prosecutors in the Pacific coast state of Guerrero said all four had been taken to a hospital, but did not say whether their wounds were serious. The shootings occurred Tuesday, and all the journalists appeared to work for local papers or news sites. State prosecutors said they consider it a case of attempted murder. The shooting come just days after three journalists were abducted and held for days in another town in Guerrero state. They were later released.
