A Canadian woman was killed in an attack near the pyramids north of Mexico City, according to multiple French-language news reports from Quebec-based outlets including Le Journal de Montréal, Radio-Canada, La Presse, and Le Droit. The victim, identified as a Vancouver resident, was among tourists visiting the archaeological site when the incident occurred. Eyewitness accounts and photographic evidence indicate the suspect appeared in at least two photos taken by members of the tour group, one of which was published by Le Journal de Montréal with the caption: “The shooter appears in two of our photos.” Radio-Canada reported that the suspect was captured on a tourist photograph, reinforcing the visual documentation of the individual present at the scene. La Presse confirmed the woman’s death and noted that security measures have since been heightened at several tourist locations in response to the attack. Le Journal de Montréal later reported the temporary closure of the tourist site following the incident, though it has since reopened. Le Droit provided additional context, specifying that the attack took place in proximity to the pyramids located north of Mexico City. No further details regarding the suspect’s identity, motive, or the woman’s name have been released in the available reports. The incident has drawn attention to safety concerns for international visitors at popular historical sites in Mexico.
