Mexican authorities say they have made an arrest in the killing of a Quebec man earlier this month in the Pacific coast beach town of Puerto Escondido.
The Oaxaca state attorney general issued a statement on Friday saying an arrest warrant was executed for a man in Puerto Escondido identified only by his initials in connection with the homicide of Victor Masson.
The statement did not outline any specific charges and said that a judge would decide next steps for the accused. Prosecutors said Masson was found dead in his car on May 15 in a neighbourhood where few tourists stay.
A few days after the slaying, authorities said in another statement that Masson’s killing stemmed from an altercation with people he had met the previous night over an unpaid bar tab at a local establishment.
