MEXICO CITY — At least 43 people died Friday in what authorities described as a fierce, three-hour gunbattle between federal forces and suspected drug gang gunmen on a ranch in western Mexico, the deadliest such confrontation in recent memory.
All the dead were suspected criminals except for one federal police officer,

Photographs from the scene showed bodies,

Rubido said the suspects were members of “a criminal organization operating in Jalisco state,

Rubido said the confrontation started Friday morning in the municipality of Tanhauto on the border between Jalisco and Michoacan states when soldiers, federal police and state and federal investigators responded to a report of the sudden appearance of armed men on a ranch. During the operation, federal forces encountered a truck full of armed men who opened fire and when they chased the gunmen onto the ranch, they came under heavy fire by others,

“The rest of the presumed criminals on the property started to attack with intensity,” Rubido said.
The federal force called for air and ground support,

He said the investigation continued but that so far authorities had detained three people and confiscated 36 semi-automatic weapons,

The border of Michoacan and Jalisco states is an area dominated by the Jalisco New Generation cartel and it has been the scene of numerous incidents of cartel violence in recent years.
Jalisco New Generation has mounted several large-scale attacks on federal and state forces in recent weeks.
New Generation’s quick rise reflects a rapidly changing organized-crime landscape in Mexico as the government targets top leaders of established cartels. More than any other criminal group,
