It's April 21st. This is California News Today, your AI-powered local news. A gunman climbed the pyramid of the moon at Teotihuacan, Mexico's top archaeological spot and opened fire on Monday. He killed one Canadian tourist and wounded at least six others before shooting himself dead. Videos from the scene show the shooter in a check shirt, up on the ancient steps, with visitors huddling low at the base. No names for the gunman or victim have come out yet, and officials have zero clues on a motive. President Claudia Scheinbaum hit social media right away, saying the attack hurts deep and offering full sympathy to the victim's families. Folks are shaken, especially since this site's a huge draw for tourists from everywhere. Authorities jumped in fast, treating the injured and locking down the zone northeast of Mexico City. Now it's calm and fully secured, with investigators digging into what went down. People's prepping to host the World Cup this summer, and Scheinbaum's pushing a solid security plan despite the country's violent spikes remind her that.

Even historic gyms need that watchful eye.
