Female gangsters are the newest organised crime "phenomenon" gripping Mexico as women assassins are completing hits for drug cartels.
Officials in the northern Mexican state of Zacatecas have noticed more and more women becoming embroiled in the shady world of Mexican drug gangs.
Footage broadcast by Milenio TV shows a unit of balaclava-clad women draped in tactical military uniforms sporting assault rifles as they move with convoys of male cartel members.
