MEXICO CITY (AP) – A relative of the extended family members killed in a drug cartel ambush in northern Mexico says five children who survived the shooting are in stable condition at an Arizona hospital.  Aaron Staddon of Queen Creek, Arizona, said Tuesday that the children are recovering but that one who was shot in the jaw will need extensive plastic surgery.  He said the family expects the children will transported from a Tucson hospital to a Phoenix facility Wednesday.  Staddon’s wife is a relative of two of the women who were gunned down and she is devastated.  Six children and three women died when their SUVs were attacked Monday. They were all U.S. citizens living in Sonora state and apparently related to the extended LeBaron family in Chihuahua.
