.....Across the country in Guadalajara, Mexico's second-largest city, gunmen at a bar killed two musicians who declined to keep playing past closing time.

The norteño band La Excelencia had just finished their performance at the Vida Divina club in the wee hours of Monday when four intoxicated men carrying weapons demanded that the musicians continue playing.

After the group agreed to play two more songs, the club owner called a halt, informing La Excelencia and the remaining patrons that it was closing time.

Minutes later, the four gunmen detonated a grenade inside the bar and opened fire on the band.

Killed were the group's leader, 22-year-old Jonathan Martinez, and bandmate Gustavo Alejandro, 35. A club patron was wounded and taken to the Western Medical Center in Guadalajara.

Witnesses were unable to provide any description of the vehicles the aggressors used in their getaway.
