Covid fears keep many Latino kids out of classrooms
For the past year, 13-year-old twins Ariel Jr. and Abraham Osorio have logged on to their online classes from their parents flower shop. Ariel nestles in a corner among flowers, bows and stuffed animals. Abraham sets up on a small table in the back, where his dad used to work trimming flowers and keeping the books.
It s not ideal for learning: It s loud. It s cramped. It s bustling with people. Still, when the twins mother, Graciela Osorio, recently had the chance to send her kids back to Brightwood Elementary in Monterey Park, California, she decided against it.
Five people, including two boys, were killed at a restaurant in Jalisco, Mexico
Witnesses said four armed men entered El Memo on Sunday afternoon and started firing. At least two people were also treated for injuries
The killings were among 10 reported during a 24-hour period in the western Mexico state, which has struggled to contain violence sparked by rival cartels
