Local candidate killed in Mexican Caribbean resort town


Updated 8:45 pm, Tuesday, June 12, 2018

CANCUN, Mexico (AP) — A candidate for city council in the Caribbean resort of Isla Mujeres has died after being shot at a political event, Mexican authorities said Tuesday.

Quintana Roo state prosecutors said Rosely Magana died late Monday, two days after being shot along with another party activist Saturday in the mainland portion of Isla Mujeres north of Cancun.

Magana was a candidate for the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party in the July 1 elections.

The risk-analysis firm Etellekt said Magana was the 15th candidate killed in Mexico during this election cycle.
