(WJW) – The U.S. Embassy and Consulates in Mexico has issued a spring break travel warning for Americans planning to visit the country.
“U.S. citizens should exercise increased caution in the downtown areas of popular spring break locations including Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum, especially after dark,” the advisory said.
It also noted that crime can occur anywhere in Mexico.
The advisory that was issued earlier this week also warns of other potential hazards like unregulated alcohol and pharmaceuticals.
“Unregulated alcohol may be contaminated, and U.S. citizens have reported losing consciousness or becoming injured after consuming alcohol that was possibly tainted,” the advisory said.
