Two Canadians Shot in Cabo San Lucas Night Club

Two Canadians have been shot in a nightclub in the Mexican resort destination of Cabo San Lucas.
Foreign Affairs spokesperson Daniel Barbarie confirmed the shooting Thursday, saying only that Canadian officials are in contact with Mexican authorities.
The victims' families have been notified, but names aren't being released at this point, said Barbarie.
Mexican newspaper Tribuna de Los Cabos says the two victims were men, aged 26 and 28, and were shot at the strip club Mermaids on Tuesday.
The younger of the two victims is from Vancouver and has come out of surgery, but remains in hospital in critical condition with a gunshot wound to the neck, the newspaper says.
The other Canadian man was reportedly in stable condition with wounds to the chest and the leg.
The report says a security guard and an American man who was sitting at the same table were also injured, and that the gunman fled the club shortly after the shooting.
