A 14-year-old girl has died in a shooting attack two blocks from the main coastal boulevard in Mexico's Pacific coast resort of Acapulco.
Prosecutors say a 35-year-old man also died in the attack, in which gunmen traveling in a sport utility vehicle fired at a hardware store. The girl does not appear to have been the target.
Two other men are being treated at local hospitals for wounds suffered in the attack.

The Monday attack was the latest in a wave of gang-style shootings which have claimed the lives of minors in Mexico.
In June, a 12-year-old girl was killed in the crossfire of a drug shootout in the border city of Ciudad Juarez. A 4-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl were killed in Tijuana in January.
