A gunman and two workers were killed during an attack on the state prosecutor's office in Cancun, authorities in the Mexican tourist city have said.
The armed attack took place yesterday at the prosecutor's office for the state of Quintano Roo. It comes one day after a shooting at an electronic music festival at a Playa del Carmen beach resort in the same state, which left five dead.
The gunman was killed when police responded during the assault by an undetermined number of armed aggressors, according to a Twitter message sent by Rodolfo de Angel, secretary for public security in the region.
