    Gunmen Rob Visiting U.S. Family of Small Plane, Torch Car in

    Gunmen Rob Visiting U.S. Family of Small Plane, Torch Car in Mexico
    Tuesday , April 15, 2008

    LOS CABOS, Mexico —

    Gunmen held up a family of U.S. tourists in Mexico on Tuesday and made off with their small plane, police said.

    The robbers attacked the plane as the American couple and their two daughters, ages 6 and 8, were about to take off from a hotel airstrip in the Baja California beach town of Mulege.

    Detective Juan Carlos de Jesus Jimenez said the thieves pulled a car in front of the six-seat Cessna Stationair, knocked out one of its windows and forced the tourists out at gunpoint. They then set fire to the car and flew off in the plane.

    U.S. officials said they had heard reports about the incident but had not yet been in contact with the victims. The plane's identification number matched a craft registered to a company in Boise, Idaho.

    Small aircraft are commonly used by Mexican drug cartels to smuggle narcotics.

    Glad nobody was hurt but the warning is still in effect.

    What were they even doing there anyway?
