Looks like the hotel owner missed a “security” payment to the local gangs.

There it is...

I have long thought that the cartels had taken over the tourism industry in Mexico or they would. It’s a guaranteed money maker that appears legit. As an added bonus, the restaurant and hospitality industry is the best industry to launder drug money.
The cartels have so much cash that they will purchase more and more businesses in Mexico. It is inevitable. In my opinion it is pretty much a narco-state now and their hold on the nation grows stronger every year.
No injuries? This wasnt any cartel.
