An unidentified relative of Alexia Belem Guerrero touches her coffin during the burial ceremony at a cemetery in the border city of Ciudad Juarez, Mexico June 12, 2008. Moreno, who was 12, was shot in the head while riding in a vehicle as she was returning from school, apparently caught in the crossfire during a gun battle between drug smugglers. She is part of an alarming trend of children being caught in the increasingly bloody battle for control of lucrative drug smuggling routes.
