A 22-year-old American tourist, allegedly took his own life in a lodging center in the hotel zone of Cancun, presumably when he threw himself from the building’s roof.
The father of the man said that his son suffered from schizophrenia, so it is presumed that he could have committed suicide in a hotel located at kilometer 17.5 of the Cancun Hotel Zone.
Ministerial police agents and criminal experts, arrived to the lodging center, cordoned off the area and initiated the investigation along with elements of the Gendarmerie Division of the Federal Police.
The agents of the Office of the Prosecutor found the lifeless body of a male person, who had fractures in different parts of the body, as consequence from the fall.
