A young tourist has died in an horrific unprovoked machete attack near a beachside restaurant, which left two others injured as they tried to step in and help.
Benjamin Gamond, an Argentine tourist, and his friends were leaving a beach restaurant on Chacahua Island in Mexico on Saturday when a man came at them from behind them waving a machete-style knife.
Mr Gamond received a fractured skull in the onslaught and was taken to a nearby hospital and, from there, was transferred to a larger facility in Mexico City.
