Received this travel alert this morning at work; first I’ve heard about it. I wonder if there’s some connection:

ON 21 FEB 18, AN EXPLOSIVE DEVICE DETONATED ON A TOURIST FERRY IN PLAYA DEL CARMEN RESULTING IN INJURIES, INCLUDING TO U.S. CITIZENS.

Manley said investigators have no clear idea of what prompted the suspect to carry out the bombing, saying, “We do not understand what motivated him to do what he did.”
