ROSARITO, Baja California(PH) - La amenaza se cumplió, el salvavidas de Rosarito Mar Tejeda de 34 años fue muerto a balazos la mañana de hoy mientras realizaba su recorrido en la playa.

De acuerdo con informes de la policía municipal, el hoy occiso caminaba sobre la arena de la playa, cerca del parque Abelardo L. Rodríguez cuando recibió los disparos.

I believe this happened in front of the "Riviera" condos in the tourist area- a ten minute walk south from us. This story doesn't go into detail about the surfer confrontation, but what could be that bad? The "surf's up" and there are a lot of jet skis in the water this week. The lifeguards patrol on quads and in trucks on our end of the beach. I've never seen a lifeguard on walking a patrol, but the central beach area may use that guarding system. It's very sad. I don't know what to make of the climbing violent crime rate. Hopefully the full story will come out. If this was the most positive way to present the story, the full story must be a doozey.

The story we heard on the radio down here was that they had a confrontation on the beach and later saw each other at a taco stand where the shooting took place. They also said that the shooter had been identified and the police were looking for him...

Rosarito.- Tras una riña el día de ayer con un surfero de apodo “El Acapulco” el Salvavidas y bombero Mar Tejeda Sánchez, de 37 años de edad fue baleado esta mañana, al filo de las 09:00 horas en la playa del estacionamiento del DIF. mientras realizaba su trabajo hacía un recorrido de rutina.

Mar fue un joven Salvavidas qué nació y creció en Rosarito, frente al mar haciendo lo que le gustaba salvar vidas con su espíritu de servicio.

La gente de la playa revelo qué el presunto asesino, conocido por su alias “Acapulco” es una persona pendenciero, prepotente y ordinario qué la discusión ni merecía la pena, fue un incidente sin llegar a mayores el día de ayer.

Hoy que se encontraron por la mañana, Mar fue llamado por el Acapulco poniéndose bravucón luego se espantó y le disparó impactándole al menos dos veces sin precisar con qué calibre fue impactado.
Tejeda Sánchez, fue trasladado hasta el Hospital General donde falleció momentos después. Mientras el agresor se dio a la fuga, sin que hasta el momento haya sido localizado
.

Rosarito.- After a fight yesterday with a surfer with the nickname "El Acapulco," lifeguard and fireman Mar Tejeda Sánchez, 37 years old, was shot this morning at 9AM at the beach at the DIF parking lot while he was on a routine patrol.

Mar was a young lifeguard who was born and raised in Rosarito, beside the ocean, and doing when he liked, which was saving lives with his spirit of service.

The people at the beach said that the presumed murderer, known by his alias "Acapulco," is a quarrelsome person, arrogant and commonplace who is not worth arguing with, and yesterday the incident that did not escalate.

This morning he found Mar, and Mar was called out by Acapulco, bullying him, then he startled him and shot him at least twice without any report on the caliber of the weapon he was shot with.

Tejeda Sánchez, was taken to the General Hospital where he died moments later. Meanwhile the attacker fled, and has not been found as of the moment.

In an interview with and about the new incoming Governor of Baja in today's UT, Sandra Dibble uses a source that says "High impact crimes are currently down" when the simple truth is the local murder rate is 25% above last year already- with a few months yet to go. I'm not sure what language these people speak, but the truth will likely never be it.

You mean Sandra Drivel? She's on the "Peaceful Mexico" bandwagon and lost her credibility a long time ago.
Ethical journalism and all that crap.........yep.......all that crap.

My worker Alberto has known the dead Lifeguard and his family since they were children. He says the man has a wife and a son about 8 years old. This "Acapulco" surfer guy and the Lifeguard knew each other. Alberto runs our dogs on the beach and this guard usually stops his truck and they talk for a while. On Thursday instead of stopping, he floored the truck and went straight to his house (he lives oceanfront where he was killed). Apparently the surfer was changing out of his wetsuit and was naked in front of the Lifeguard's wife- and she called him. The Surfer and lifeguard got into an argument about it and the next day the El Acapulco guy came back and killed him. Nothing to do with lifeguarding. Just street-chatter of course.

Looks like he'll be part of the 2% of criminals they catch and prosecute. They'll find him.

Hope so. Then it will depend on who he works for to determine the outcome.
Pretty radical behavior for a surfer.

This one is gone. If he doesn't do serious time I would be surprised. There's no drug boss to bail him out and he did kill a beloved Lifeguard. He may not even make it into jail.

Hey, Craig..........did you see this? it's supposed to be the same girl who had contact with Gary Patton, the missing man, in Rosarito.
