Gunfire was reported through social networks by users who attended a music festival in a Playa del Carmen nightclub, creating panic among visitors at the popular go to spot for foreigners.
Details are still sketchy, although media reports
that the narco shootout occurred at the Blue Parrot resulting in at least 8 killed.
From Twitter:
"People came to the club and opened fire .
Four, five dead and several wounded. Stay in your damn hotel if you are here in
the BPM "wrote DJ Jack Revill, known as Jackmaster, referring to the
festival that was held in the club Blue Parrot.
Update: People on the scene described it as a narco shooting. However police report it was a lone gunman who had a disagreement within the club. Since this is a tourist area any report from police may be suspected to shield the truth if it would damage tourism. Hard to say. 12 are reported injured, including two Americans.

Deleteluego luego saltastes toda envaselinada por atrás, mija.
good report here http://www.datatransmission.co.uk/news/breaking-gunshots-reported-closing-night-bpm-festival/
ReplyDeletewould be nice to know the truth and who and why this happened. Was it cartel? Police? Or cartel and police fighting?
ReplyDeleteDo these pieces of shit look at a map of Mexico for places that are peaceful...to go fuck up? First peaceful BCS goes to shit...now the Yucatan? Ajjic went to shit a long time ago. Magic villages waking up to beheadings. Fucking politicians are garbage down there.

DeleteIn other news, 10 people killed in the ensuing panic from the stampede.
ReplyDeleteIt's never good when a tourist spot is the scene of a shooting. Anyone have any narco leads?
ReplyDeleteI was in Playa de Carmen last summer on a cruise and the tour guide said "the bad guys stay away from the tourist area, the military have everything under control here" 😒Yeah right...
DeleteWhat's the difference between Mexico and Iraq? tacos?
ReplyDeleteyou made my day :)
Delete9:34AM
DeleteWhat's the difference between Mexico, Iraq, and the United States? Maybe at present Iraq has less violence of the three because the U.S. has a lot of mass shootings among other violent acts.

DeleteIts a matter a time th US is going to be like this too.
DeleteLoooooooool at Tacos
DeleteDominicanBlanko
I think the only difference is that the soldiers of fortune and their secret prisons have not been exposed yet.
DeleteBy the way, marine general Mad Dog Mattis conquered iraq with his very able marines, and then surrendered it to private intelligence contractors, he sure earned his appointment to secretary of defense, on the shoulders, the hunger, blood sweat and tears of his soldiers, some of whom still make fun of Lt. Gen. CHAOS for "Colonel Has An Outstanding Solution"
@bnonews 4 of those killed in shooting at nightclub in Mexico have been identified as 2 people from Canada, 1 from Italy and 1 from Colombia
ReplyDelete-Mica
It looks like a mafia meeting with out the permission of a Mexican cartel Colombian and Italian mafia maybe thinking of supplying the Canadian border
DeleteAn italian and a colombian in mexico someone was meeting for something
Delete1:28 I agree. it was probably for not paying their dues to the narco's. This has to stop at all levels in Mexico so they can move forward. The economy in Mexico is getting worse and the peso is falling. These types of things cannot help. Extortion against avocado growers and everything else. What a shame.
DeleteAnd the canadian owner is of African Descent, too many foreign businessmen around there enticing the cucarachas to come and get some...
Deleteif the mexican law enforcement chose to stand down, this is what it looks like, no pinshis security guards, no mamen!
The place should not have opened, time to sue the insurance, oh yeah, but what insurance?
Well..that's very sad! Tourism in mx takes another hit. The economy is already in turmoil and some asshole with a gun opens fire on innocent people. The only thing this dickhead did was put hundreds of people out of work. And for what?
ReplyDeleteFor not paying la cuota....la letra was very clear pay up or else....Enrique Pena nieto don't care about mexico.
DeleteSadly Mexicans don't care about mexico a civilized community polices it's self teaches their kids morals and not glorifies narcos
Delete9:11 in mexico community policing is against the law and just being a suspect makes you eligible for the death penalty faster than any other crime...
Deletealready made news in europa, but with only 5 people death. i think there will be new comercials in the newspapers about how safe and secure mx is. EPN must be realy pissed...
ReplyDeleteAnd the stinking murderers achieved?
ReplyDelete1:50 achieved to show that not only in Acapulco they have mass murders in mexican clubs
DeleteCacapulco paying back to Cancun for all their favors...
Delete--What about the monterrey school massacre?
Either a drug deal or they were trying to collect an extortion debt.
ReplyDeleteReading that Zetas opened fire having to do with the promoters not paying their tax.
ReplyDeleteAnymore info yet?
ReplyDeletei believe in iraq also has tacos de trompo except with flour tortillas, so no, it's not tacos. maybe the language, buahahaha.
ReplyDeleteTigere, i'm happy you are out and about,
Deleteafter all those gringo bachelor partiers done did to you,
--Not only Mike is a tree jumper...
Media is now reporting that this attack had nothing to do with narcos. More likely it was in retaliation for a customer having been expelled from the club or another personal vendetta.
ReplyDelete4:24-I don't think mexico wants to say the truth because it would hurt their big golden goose Cancun.Of course they aren't going to say that they sold the plaza to the narcos so they can exhort.I think the Canadian organizers got approached at some point and told they had to pay piso and just blew the guy off and didn't take it seriously because they didn't know that that's how it operates down there.Make no mistake this will effect tourism but the hoardes will still come but the last 2 'decent' places like Cancun and Los Capos [pun intended] are on their last legs as 'safe' resorts although that event was a once a year foreign event so not as likely to be repeated.EPN must be squirming. I read today that a gov office in Cancun got shot up and 3 people dead so Cancun is no longer immune to the violence.
DeleteTribute page setup for one of the deceased.

Among the dead was a u.s citizen women (from Denver) I met her at a party... Its crazy man
ReplyDeleteI didint here no shooting
ReplyDeleteWhere can you get more info on this theory ?
ReplyDeleteWhat cartel attacked? anyone know this info
ReplyDeleteReports are saying it was the Gulf Cartel
ReplyDeleteI dont think its Narcos cuz it not good for business to heat up the plaza
ReplyDeleteWell, if this famous place was too much competition, now it is no more, that helps other not so famous or resourceful joints, it is soo not right that foreign gangsters come and rob the mexican gangsters of their shit just because they paid their mordidas and kickbacks to the mexican politicians.
DeleteThis article says that it was a hit on someone from Veracruz http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-38648098
ReplyDeleteZetas vieja escuela are responsible for the attack the owner of the bar was not joining alliances with them instead the Bar owner is creating an alliance with the New group called ( Los Combos) ex golfos,zetas,cjng and los pelones. 2 small time groups fighting for control of the PLAZA!
ReplyDeleteSome cartels work different the smaller more vicious cartels mostly do these attacks to show the power of each group has and to (HEAT) UP THE PLAZA! In reality these kind of attacks do the cartels no harm nor does it affect business. Now and days they save men power and instead create these kind of attacks instead of all out WAR which on this case won't happen they will probably take each other out 1 by 1 . But Rumor is that a BIG WAR IS COMING FROM 2 BIG MAJOR CARTELS IN MEXICO.
ReplyDeleteAnd the cover up is going to be, did you hear chavez jr is going to fight canelo.
ReplyDeleteThe reason it happened is because the canadians promo guys were selling there own stuff at the events. Blame the cuz. U heard it first from me.
ReplyDeleteDont ever ever go to nightclubs bars casinos cockfights or boxing matches unless you want to get caught up in this stuff.
