CANCUN, Mexico — Gunfire broke out on a beach in Mexico’s Caribbean coast resort of Cancun on Tuesday, sending tourists scrambling for cover, but authorities said nobody appeared to be injured.
“There were two guys and maybe even a third, who came in on jet skis, and what I saw was them shooting up into the sky,” Lebassa said. “I did not see any shots coming in toward the shoreline.”“I’m not overly concerned because this is the first time ever,” Lebassa said. “We’ve been coming down for 31 years and we’ve never had any issues.”Andy Guyrich and Kerry Arms, who were visiting from Minnesota, described more gunshots and terror on the beach.
State authorities called it “a clash between rival groups of drug dealers on a beach” near two hotels. Several cartels are fighting for the area’s lucrative retail drug trade, including the Jalisco cartel and the a gang allied with the Gulf cartel. Three other foreign tourists were wounded in the shooting at a street-side eatery that has some outdoor tables, right off Tulum’s main strip. They included two German men and a Dutch woman.
