A tragic incident occurred at the Teotihuacán archaeological site in Mexico, resulting in the death of a Canadian woman and multiple injuries. The assailant, who later took his own life, opened fire at the historic location, approximately an hour north of Mexico City. Authorities recovered a firearm, a bladed weapon, and live ammunition at the scene.
Six individuals sustained injuries, with four suffering gunshot wounds and two hurt while trying to escape. The attacker was observed moving on a mid-level platform of the Pyramid of the Sun before committing suicide. Videos circulating online captured the gunman walking on the structure as visitors gathered below.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum addressed the incident on social media, expressing deep sorrow and solidarity with the victims and their families. She instructed the Security Cabinet to investigate thoroughly and provide necessary assistance. Officials from the Secretariat of the Interior and Culture are en route to the site to offer support alongside local authorities.
