The Quintana Roo state prosecutor’s office said on Twitter that the suspect in the shooting also was apparently a guest. It said it had been informed by Canadian police that the suspect has a history of robbery, drug and weapons offenses.
One Canadian has been killed and two others injured in a shooting at a Mexican resort near Playa del Carmen on Friday, local officials have reported.
Quintana Roo state security secretary Lucio Hernández Gutiérrez confirmed the triple shooting on Twitter.
The shooting took place at a hotel in Xcaret, Mexico. All three of those injured were identified as Canadian and Gutiérrez said they were immediately transferred to hospital, where one died.
That’s great, we’re exporting crime to Mexico!
