CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico (AP) -- A Canadian tourist was shot and killed late Thursday inside his hotel room in the Mexican resort city of Cabo San Lucas, police said.

State police commander Enrique Wuilar says a lone gunman shot Canadian Bouabal Bounthavorn in his hotel room.

Wuilar says the 29-year-old man was shot three times in the head. He was staying with his girlfriend at the Hotel Riu in Cabo San Lucas.

Bounthavorn's girlfriend, 24-year-old Masha Heikali, was shot in one foot.

Wuilar says no one has been arrested in the killing and investigators have no leads.
