TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — Men armed with assault rifles burst into a shoe factory and opened fire Tuesday, killing at least 15 workers and wounding eight, Honduran authorities said.

National police spokesman Leonel Sauceda called the attack in the northern city of San Pedro Sula “a massacre.” He said the motive had not yet been determined.

Sauceda said police were not ruling out the possibility that the attack may have been related to drug trafficking. San Pedro Sula has been a hotbed of gun battles between drug traffickers and among the country’s Mara street gangs.
