Two-Month Teotihuacán Plot Uncovered: Gunman Planned Massacre, Scene Image Found in Hotel Room
TL;DR
Mexican authorities say Julio César Jasso, a Nazi-sympathizing gunman, plotted the Teotihuacán attack for about two months, stayed near the site in April, and kept a hotel-room image depicting the scene. He opened fire from the Pyramid of the Moon, killing a Canadian tourist and injuring 13 others before dying by suicide. Investigators recovered notes and Nazi imagery, including an AI-generated image with Columbine shooters, as security officials vow a thorough investigation.
