Three people linked to US consulate in Mexico killed

Suspected drug cartel hit squads gunned down three people connected to the US consulate in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez, a US official says.

They include a consulate employee and her husband, both American, and the Mexican husband of another employee.

President Barack Obama said he was "outraged" by the drive-by shootings.
