Four U.S. citizens have been kidnapped after gunmen opened fire on their vehicle in the northern Mexico border city of Matamoros, the FBI said Sunday.
The four had entered Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas, on Friday. They were travelling in a white minivan with North Carolina license plates.
The FBI San Antonio Division office said the vehicle came under fire shortly after it entered Mexico. "All four Americans were placed in a vehicle and taken from the scene by armed men," the office said.Matamoros is home to warring factions of the Gulf drug cartel. The shootouts in Matamoros were so bad that the U.S. Consulate issued an alert about the danger Friday.
