Mexico – Mexican officials said a band of gunmen invaded the La Palma resort in the Cortazar municipality and shot the vacationers at the swimming pool. Authorities said three women and three men died, including a child, as well as an eighth person who was seriously wounded. The identities of the victims have not yet been released.Â
Videos on social media show police on the scene as tourists look on in shock, many still in their swimsuits and towels. Others are seen crying and hugging their children.
“Heavily armed sicarios arrived and this is what happened,” said one man filming the aftermath, using a word for hired assassins.
Authorities said the gunmen then destroyed the spa shop and took the security cameras before fleeing the scene.
Mexican soldiers and police aided by a helicopter were searching for the attackers. A statement released by officials in the Cortazar municipality in Guanajuato state did not speculate on a possible motive.
