Tourist shot in Mexico's Caribbean resort town.
An American tourist was shot in the leg by unidentified assailants in Puerto Morelos, a resort town on Mexico's Caribbean coast. The motive remains under investigation. The U.S. State Department has issued a travel alert warning travelers to "exercise increased caution," especially after dark, at Mexico's Caribbean beach resorts like Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum, which have been plagued by drug gang violence in the past.
