MEXICO CITY (AP) - The Mexican military says 15 gunmen and one soldier were killed in a shootout hours ahead of President Barack Obama's first visit to the country.
Mexico's Defense Department says the shootout happened in a remote, mountainous region in Guerrero state, where the Pacific coast resort of Acapulco is located.
The department says soldiers came under fire from a convoy of gunmen Wednesday while patrolling the drug trafficking area.
Obama is meeting Thursday with President Felipe Calderon to show his support for the Mexican government's fight against cartels.
