The incident occurred in a residence in the Cuna Maya neighborhood, situated in Region 203 of Cancún, between 20 de Noviembre Avenue and Niños Héroes Avenue.
The group of friends was reportedly enjoying a party during the afternoon when disagreements arose. As the situation escalated amidst the consumption of alcohol, a fistfight broke out.
