CIUDAD JUÁREZ, mexico — Every police officer in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juárez has been ordered to leave home and stay in a hotel after the killing of five officers by a local drug cartel.

The cartel threatened a week ago to kill one policeman a day unless Police Chief Julian Leyzaola resigns. Juárez Mayor Hector Murguia said Wednesday that the attacks are a response to toughening police action against cartels. He said there is no way Ley zaola is stepping down. The Associated Press
