Mexico’s government has announced a significant increase in security measures at key tourist destinations following a shooting at the ancient Teotihuacan pyramids, less than two months before the country is set to co-host the Fifa World Cup.
The incident, which occurred on Monday, saw a lone gunman open fire on tourists atop one of the iconic pyramids at the UNESCO Heritage Site, a popular attraction near Mexico City. The attack resulted in the death of one Canadian tourist and left a dozen others injured.
