Mexico City prosecutors have charged six employees of a bar with
covering for the suspect in the shooting of Paraguayan striker
Salvador Cabanas.
The employees were already under custody for investigation in
the case. Another employee faces attempted-homicide charges.
The waiters and other staff allegedly either helped the
suspect escape, covered up evidence or failed to provide
information on the crime.
Neither they nor their lawyers were available for comment
Wednesday.
Cabanas is recovering after being shot in the head on Jan.
25. The man suspected of shooting him remains at large.
Cabanas plays for Mexico's club America and had been expected
to lead Paraguay's national team at the World Cup in South Africa.
