Mexican officials said gunmen have attacked a group at a beach in the Los Cabos tourist region at the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, killing three men and injuring two people, ABC news reported Monday.
The prosecutor's office for Baja California Sur state said the attack happened Sunday afternoon at the entrance to Playa Palmilla, a popular beach next to San Jose del Cabo. Its statement gives no motive.
Authorities said the beach was crowded with tourists, both Mexican and foreign, when the shooting started, and police evacuated the area.
Southern Baja California has seen a surge in violence this year, though mostly outside tourist areas. Analysts blame much of the bloodshed on fighting among factions in the Sinaloa drug cartel and also clashes with the rival Jalisco New Generation cartel.
