We've heard about crime in Mexico. Well, this is a very bad report:
Mexico’s most popular holiday hot spot has become overrun with drug gangs, as violence in the tourist party town escalates to unprecedented levels.Can we say "Mexico we have a problem"?
Cancun has seen 14 murders in just 36 hours — the highest ever in the country’s recorded history, according to Noticaribe.
The latest violence on April 4 saw 14 people killed and at least five others left with gunshot wounds, in six separate instances in the party town.
The figures surpass Cancun’s previous record of nine killings in a day, which was set on Nov. 25, 2004.
Tourism is a huge industry in Mexico. It depends on US, Canadian and European tourists. This is not the kind of information that tourists want to read about.
