Trouble in Mexico

See McAllen near the top of the map? We are about 15 miles east of  McAllen.
Tonight Butch helped some people from British Columbia Canada park their RV. They wintered in Puerto Vallarta. Their friends and next door winter neighbors left last week for the US and ultimately home to Canada. They received an email from them relating their ordeal near Ciudad Victoria Mexico. They were about 20 kilometers north of Ciudad Victoria Mexico (See Map) when vehicles across the road stopped their progress. There were 3 RV's traveling together. They were all three hijacked. They took everything they owned including all their money. They were left on the side of the road with only the clothes on their back. They were lucky they left them alive.
There will be far fewer Canadians in Mexico next winter.
