A Mexican media worker was killed on Monday in the violent western state of Michoacan, one of his employers said, the latest killing in a spate of deadly attacks that have sparked protests in the Latin American nation.
Roberto Toledo's death follows the killings of three journalists in Mexico earlier in January. The murder of Lourdes Maldonado in Tijuana on Jan. 23 sparked a wave of protests by journalists across the country.
Toledo, who had worked with news website Monitor Michoacan for three years, was killed by multiple gunmen, the outlet's director Armando Linares said in a Facebook Live video.
