The Puebla state prosecutors’ office says the women ranged in age from 16 to 23. The men were 24 and 41.

There was no immediate information on motive. But the prosecutor’s office said Monday that the shooting happened at a house in the city of Huauchinango where officials found packages of marijuana after the attack.
