A few seconds later, the shooter fired two shots at López’s head, sending other nearby vendors running for safety before he escaped.
Paramedics who arrived shortly on the scene pronounced Lopez dead on the spot.
According to El Universal, López had only moved from the southern state of Chiapas to the Mexican capital and was on his second day of work.
The shooting was linked to area gangs seeking extortion payments from vendors for the right to operate their businesses at Central de Abasto.
No arrests have been reported in connection with the brutal assassination of Geramael López.
