8 People Die in Cancun Bar

In this story , A group of 6 to 8 men entered a bar in Cancun, Mexico and killed eight people. The murdering men entered the Castillo de Mar Bar and threw a bunch of homemade bombs. They killed six women and 2 men. Investigators claim they haven't found any motive for the attack, but the bar in question has been a victom of two extortion attempts. The attack happened aroung 1 a.m. and the victoms were reported to be locals and not tourists. They believe the attack could be the work of the Zeta drug cartel.


My view on this story is that I am shocked! I think that they should put more police down in that area. Cancun, Mexico is a big hot spot for a lot of tourists and vacationers. Even though the victoms weren't tourists! It could have happened to anyone. Mexico has been having a lot of trouble with drug dealers and gangs down in that area. I think that reinforcements should be brought in down there to clean up the mess! Innocent people are dieing everyday because of the fighting between the many gangs and drug cartels! I'm sure that at the time this incident occured a lot of the people that were sitting in that bar were well wasted, but whatever the problem is it shouldn't end in a bloody violent mess! If the police don't do something to stop the violence and the mayhem that these drug cartel and gang members are causing things could get a lot uglier for anybody that visits Cancun! Eventually, if something isn't done about this problem, Cancun is going to lose a lot of it's tourists! Losing it's tourists could lose a lot of money for the place!
