First, it was reported that the victim was a public servant from Tulum. Hours later his real identity was revealed.

The officer in charge of unit 9282 of the Quintana Roo State Police, arrived on-site and immediately cordoned off the area where he found a white Volkswagen Jetta with license plate number UVR-625-D, with a broken windshield, and a driver drenched in blood, so he immediately called an ambulance.

Paramedics from Costamed responded to the call, just to find out that the subject who was injured with a firearm no longer had vital signs.
