A groom was shot dead ‘by mistake’ on his wedding day while walking out of the church with his bride shortly after tying the knot.

Marco Antonio was holding his bride’s hand while walking to the wedding car after the church ceremony when he was gunned down in Caborca, Mexico.

His wife, who was unharmed, was pictured being helped by a loved one in her blood stained wedding dress after the incident.

Antonio’s sister was also shot in her back, according to local media.

Officials confirmed Antonio died from a “direct attack” with a firearm and his death could have been “a mistake

Carboca is home to the infamous Caborca Cartel, which is run by drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero. The gang are currently warring with the Los Salazar network over drug trafficking operations.

The prosecutor’s office said;

“Investigations indicate that the attack against Marco Antonio was directed towards another individual who was also getting married at the same time in a different nearby city.

“No line of investigation is ruled out and all the necessary Criminal and Field Ballistics expert reports are carried out, in order to fully clarify the facts and find those responsible to do justice.”

Another groom was also shot at his wedding in a nearby city on the same night.

State governor Alfonso Durazo said: “This was an attack intended for a single individual and this means that this will not happen just to anyone.”
