A vehicle struck multiple people at a gathering in the popular tourist resort of Cabo San Lucas following Mexico’s victory in a World Cup match on Wednesday night, Los Cabos’ city hall said in a statement.
“According to preliminary information, the vehicle was surrounded by a group of people and, for reasons to be determined by the competent authority, drove through the crowd, injuring several people,” city hall added.
An unverified video has circulated on social media showing a car ramming a crowd; Reuters could not immediately verify its authenticity.
Earlier, the co-hosts scored three second-half goals at Mexico City Stadium to eliminate Czechia from the World Cup and end the group phase with maximum points.
