The battle resulted in a victory for the Mexican rebels. The battleAfter a series of skirmishes leading up to the actual siege, Mexican rebel forces were finally able to besiege the city and take the plaza of Acapulco on 12 April 1813.[2] The Spanish forces took refuge in the Fuerte de San Diego where they were able to continue to resist the insurgent attacks until August of the same year when a truce was signed between José María Morelos and Pedro Antonio Vélez. The rebel victory was strategically important because the port was one of the largest and most important to the strategic objectives laid out by Morelos at the start of the campaign.[3] References1. ^Declaración del comandante de la fortaleza don Pedro Antonio Vélez, respecto a la redición de Acapulco Tepecuacuilco, septiembre de 1813 2. ^Zárate, 1880; 374-376 3. ^Zárate, 1880; 386-388
