Mexican drug cartel lawlessness has again struck America. A young couple who were sightseeing and jet-skiing on Falcon Lake in Texas yesterday were reportedly attacked by Mexican pirates. The husband, David Michael Hartley, was shot in the head, but his wife Tiffany escaped. A search is being conducted to find Hartley, but he is feared to have been killed. Armed gunmen reportedly chased after the woman, and may have driven their boats into U.S. waters briefly while trying to run down Tiffany Hartley.
This isn’t the first time that Mexican pirates, believed to be linked to drug cartels, have attacked and/or robbed Americans in the border lake of Lake Falcon. However, this may be the first that the recent attacks have resulted in an American being killed.

But one armed Mexican pirate attack in May occurred on the US side of the border.
