A crazed gunman who murdered a Canadian tourist and wounded 13 others at an ancient Mexican temple bragged that he “sacrificed” his victims “like dogs,” in a chilling video taken by one of his hostages.
“Don’t move, or I’ll sacrifice you,” Hitler-obsessed killer Julio César Jasso, 27, is heard shouting in the video, filmed on Monday as he pointed a gun at terrified tourists atop the pyramid at Mexico’s Teotihuacan ruins.
“This was built for sacrifices, a–holes. Not for visiting and taking a f–king, s—ty photo,” he continues in the rambling video, filmed by a tourist as the group cowered on the ground.
“See. I keep my word. Two f–king Koreans are dead there. I sacrificed them like dogs,” brags Jasso, who purportedly timed Monday’s deadly shooting to coincide with both the 27th anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting as well as Adolf Hitler’s birthday.
Jasso also vows to slaughter his hostages, saying “you all, s–t, who’ve come from f–king Europe, you’re not going back,” in the heart-stopping footage first shared on social media.

The shooting took place almost halfway up the Pyramid of the Moon — an almost-2,000-year-old pyramid pre-dating the Aztecs roughly an hour’s drive from Mexico City, which was once used for ritual human and animal sacrifice.
Jasso later died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound as Mexican authorities closed in.
