Arnulfo Arroyo Romero
Arnulfo Arroyo Romero (* 1865 in Mexico City ; † September 16, 1897 there ) was a Mexican anarchist .
Arnulfo Arroyo Romero, the son of a tailor, was a member of the middle class in Mexico City.
The parade for Mexican Independence Day on the morning of September 16, 1897 took Arroyo Romero to the President Porfirio Díaz to knock on the back. Thereupon he was arrested by the ruler's personal security, taken to the guard at the main entrance of the Palacio Nacional and later murdered in prison by fellow prisoners.
José Guadalupe Posada made a picture of the battered body of Arroyo Romero that appeared on the front page of the daily El Popular . In the course of the investigation into the case, the Mexico City Police Chief committed suicide and other police officers, including Antonio Villavicencio, were arrested.
