Two Canadians were killed Friday, with another wounded, in a shooting at a hotel along Mexico's Caribbean coast. Authorities were searching for a Hotel Xcaret guest in the shooting. Authorities said all three victims were taken to a hospital, but two died.

The Quintana Roo state prosecutor's office said via Twitter that the suspect in the shooting was also apparently a guest and Canadian police informed them he was a known felon with a long record related to robbery, drug and weapons offenses. The office said both of the dead also had criminal records.
