Mexican law enforcement authorities have confirmed that the attacker, 27-year-old Julio Ramirez, committed suicide shortly after shooting at the tourists.
Mexican Attorney General Ernestina Godoy Ramos, quoted by Mexican television Milenio, explained that the man “was also fascinated by famous massacres” and “showed symptoms of psychopathy.”
The attack was carried out on Adolf Hitler's birthday
During the investigation, it was confirmed that Ramirez was a supporter of Hitler and Nazi ideology. Photos published by him were found on the Internet, including: performs the Nazi salute.
According to the daily “El Pais”, the basis for claiming that the aggressor committed the crime under the influence of fascination with the leader of the Third Reich was the fact that he committed the attack on April 20, i.e. on Adolf Hitler's birthday.
