According to family relatives on CBS television, travelled to Michoacan to spend some vacation days, when they were attacked by members of a drug cartel that confused them with other people, however it is assured that the Ramos family have no links to drug traffickers.
Since the event, colleagues and friends of the youngsters, some students in Oxnard, California, have started a series of activities to support the family and their medical bills. For their part, the family started a campaign on GoFundMe to raise more than $50,000.00
