【原文】

（1）Fourteen Mexican police officers have been charged with attempted murder over the shooting of two US government officials and a Mexican navy officer.（十四名墨西哥警官被指控蓄意谋杀两名美国政府官员和一名墨西哥海军军官。）In August, gunmen opened fire on a car with diplomatic license plates. There were two CIA agents inside and a member of Mexican marines. Since the investigation unfolded under pressure from Washington, it became clear that the gunmen were in fact federal police officers. （2）The government suggested that the officers were in league with the country's violent drug groups（政府披露这些官员与墨西哥贩毒集团勾结。）and that the attack was in some way related to the cooperation between the United States and Mexico in a fight against drug trafficking.
