CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico -- Mexican police say they are protecting the girlfriend of a Canadian tourist who was killed in Mexico's Cabo San Lucas beach resort.
Police say 29-year-old Bouabal Bounthavorn was fatally shot late Thursday after he opened the door of his room at the Hotel Riu and argued briefly with an unknown man.
His girlfriend was wounded in the ankle and treated at a local hospital.
State police Cmdr. Enrique Wuilar says that authorities have no leads or motive in the killing.
They have set up roadblocks and are monitoring the airport for the killer, described as a tall, thin, dark-skinned man.
