A teen who survived the brutal ambush that killed 9 people in Mexico last week says his mother desperately tried to protect her kids before she was fatally shot.
Devin said he and the others who were able to walk carried their injured siblings as far as they could.Fearing the gunmen would return, Devin hid the wounded children behind a bush and then started walking for help.
"Every one of them were bleeding really bad, so I was trying to get in a rush to get there," he said. Devin ended up walking for several hours, traveling 14 miles before he found help. The whole time, he said, he was terrified, wondering if"there wasn't anybody else out there trying to shoot me or follow me.""To be honest with you, my boy's a hero," David Langford told ABC News."Everyone one of my children that survived are living miracles," he added.But Devin said he wanted the public to know how heroic his mother had been, too.
The attack has upended the families' lives and prompted outrage and skepticism toward Mexican authorities. Many relatives of the victims say they do not believe the shooting was a case of mistaken identity and are demanding answers.Funerals were held last week and over the weekend for the victims.
Dozens of members of the extended family left Mexico in a caravan over the weekend, fearing it was too dangerous to stay.

'Get out of the fucking left lane!' The man, 85-year-old Carl Palmer, was on his way to the local VA hospital to receive the intensive weekly physical therapy that allows him to walk despite the chronic pain of a massive shrapnel wound he sustained 67 years ago.
