The Texas Department of Public Safety is urging Texans to avoid traveling to Mexico during spring break, and beyond, due to the ongoing violence throughout that country

Waco, TX – Officials also said that the United States government has also issued recent travel warnings to Mexico.

Travelers are encouraged to view the latest warnings online.

Additionally, U.S. citizens who do decide to travel to Mexico are urged to register with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate prior to their departure.

DPS understands many people do travel to Mexico without incident, but the serious risks cannot be ignored.

All travelers are encouraged to carefully research any planned trips and, again, consider postponing or canceling travel to Mexico at this time.

This is a developing story and it will be updated as new information become available.
