TL;DR

Mexican authorities have arrested six members of a drug gang in connection to the brutal slaying of at least eight people in Cancun, where five dismembered bodies were found inside a taxi. The suspects allegedly hacked up five people with a machete and dumped three other victims in a shallow grave. The drug ring operated a fake tour agency as a cover for drug dealing, and evidence was found at a fake "call center" for tourists. The illegal drug trade continues to pose ongoing violence and danger to tourists in the state of Quintana Roo, with previous incidents of foreign tourists being killed in drug disputes.
