(CNN) -- One of a small number of women who have filled a void by becoming police chiefs in violence-torn Mexico was gunned down Monday, authorities said.
Hermila Garcia, 38, became the top cop in the town of Meoqui just two months ago.
Gunmen attacked her as she drove to work by herself, authorities said.
Garcia was one of a handful of women who have taken leadership roles in police departments in cities and towns where men have stayed away because of fear.
