On October 17, police located the man and woman inside the trunk of a car parked on 85th Avenue and 3rd Street in the Ejidal neighborhood of Playa del Carmen. Inside, they found the deceased woman, who was an active officer, and an injured man. The man was taken to hospital and survived the attempt on his life.
