The U.S. Department of State has issued a travel warning for multiple states in Mexico, alerting American visitors to the high risk of crime and kidnappings in regions of the country.
The Mexican government sent hundreds of troops to the border region last week after cars and businesses were set on fire in response to a series of arrests of drug cartel figures.Authorities on the California-Mexico border on high-alert after a wave of violence. Fear still lingering--as a music festival in rosarito draws in thousands of tourists. Darsha Philips reports for the NBC4 News at 11 p.m. on Aug. 13, 2022.
Aside from the warnings for everyday citizens, U.S. government employees have been direct to not travel alone, or to remote areas, avoid travel between cities after dark, and urged to use dispatched cars instead of taxis. The Department of State site recommends that if you do travel despite the warnings, you should follow these safety rules:
Keep traveling companions and family back home informed of your travel plans. If separating from your travel group, send a friend your GPS location. If taking a taxi alone, take a photo of the taxi number and/or license plate and text it to a friend. Use toll roads when possible and avoid driving alone or at night. In many states, police presence and emergency services are extremely limited outside the state capital or major cities.Do not display signs of wealth, such as wearing expensive watches or jewelry.
