A Mexican 'drug ballad' singer has been reported to have killed his daughter's basketball coach as revenge for leaving her out of the team.

Angelico Reyes is said to have opened fire on Guillermo Cordero, 33, after being told his daughter could not be in the starting team, not even as a substitute, because she arrived late.

The 11-year-old student had hoped to play a local team at a university court in Oaxaca city, southwest Mexico, but was told to sit out after her family failed to arrive on time.
