September 14, 2006) --The US Ambassador to Mexico issued a message Thursdsay advising people to exercise extreme caution when traveling in Mexico because of increasing violence.
Ambassador Tony Garza stopped short of warning travelers not to visit Mexico.
He warned Americans to stick to well-known tourist destinations and main roads and refrain from displaying expensive-looking jewelry.
Garza singled out the city of Nuevo Laredo, across the river from Laredo, Texas, as being particularly dangerous.
The statement follows a wave of drug-related violence this year that has claimed more than 1,500 lives across Mexico, many in states bordering the US.
The bloodshed is attributed to rival gangs battling over smuggling routes into the United States.
It has included beheadings, grenade attacks and execution-style hits on several police chiefs.
Garza reported that this week, armed men went into a Nuevo Laredo hotel and held up 25 people who were going to work for a Texas-based company.
Furthermore, he said there were 20 unresolved cases of US citizens who had been kidnapped in Nuevo Laredo during the last two years.
