A cartel hitman known as ‘Skinny Guy’ is believed to be the target of a bar shooting that left 10 people dead.

Four gunmen shot up the bar after arriving in a pickup truck.

Horror footage showed bullets ricocheting across the bar as customers drop to the floor.

Some take cover as others fall over after apparently getting shot.

Another clip shows four suspects arriving at the bar in a silver pickup before two go inside and the others remain with the vehicle.

The shooting took place at Cantaritos Bar in Santiago de Querétaro, located north-west of the Mexican capital Mexico City, at around 9.30pm last Saturday (Nov 9).

The massacre left seven men and three women dead, and 13 others injured.

Following a preliminary investigation, the authorities believe the attack was carried out by members of the Santa Rosa de Lima Cartel.

They allegedly targeted hitman Fernando González Núñez, known as ‘Skinny Guy’, a suspected member of rival group the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).

The authorities said González, 31, probably gave away his location on social media.

He posted that he was in the bar minutes before the shooters showed up.

González openly bragged about his gangster lifestyle on social media, posting pics of him using firearms and going on luxury trips.

He also reportedly dated model and influencer Jacky Ramírez, star of the reality show Acapulco Shore.

In August, he tried to recruit wannabe hitmen into the CJNG on social media, according to the police.

He had been arrested twice this year, once in March for “carrying firearms” and again in August for trying to recruit new members.

So far, the authorities believe González was targeted for an attack on members of the Santa Rosa de Lima Cartel two days before he was killed.

The two cartels are said to be engaged in a turf war for control of the area.

The police have since arrested one of the alleged shooters in the bar attack, as reported by Need To Know.

The investigation continues.
