Yesterday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, we're not jumping to conclusions, we're going to investigate.

And I spoke to Michael Bustamante, who studies Cuba at the University of Miami, and he says this will no doubt inflame tensions in South Florida, but he was surprised by how measured Rubio's comments were.

And those consequences, he said, could be mass migration or regime change triggering a U.S.

military intervention, which he doesn't think Trump wants.

According to Cuba's interior minister, a speedboat was spotted by its border patrol.

When they approached the boat to identify it, the Cuban government says the occupants opened fire.

Cuban authorities fired back, killing four people and wounding six.

The government says the injured were given medical aid.

It's unclear who the people on the boat were, but the incident comes at a moment of heightened tension between the US and Cuba.

30 years ago this week, the Cuban government shot down an airplane run by Brothers to the Rescue, a Miami-based group who rescued Cuban migrants at sea.

Cuba insisted the plane violated their airspace.

The United States Congress responded with sweeping sanctions that are still in place today.

The Mexican military says Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, who was better known as El Mencho, was killed during an operation to capture him on Sunday.

His death unleashed waves of violence across more than 20 states, but calm has returned to the state of Jalisco, where he wielded most of his power.

The governor says schools will reopen on Wednesday, and many businesses have already reopened.

The government of Mexico says that international airlines will also restart flights soon out of the resort town of Puerto Vallarta.

Authorities say they found El Mencho at a country club in the mountains surrounding Guadalajara.

It was a place frequented by powerful people, including politicians and business leaders.
