Two police officers died in a shootout with alleged criminals Thursday in the violence-plagued southern state of Guerrero, the government said.

Security forces killed 17 members of a criminal group that later attacked the military in the same area, Public Security Minister Omar Garcia Harfuch told a news conference, three more than previously reported.

Car bombings, assassinating political leaders, attacking the military, sure sounds pretty terroristy to me.
