Armed men have kidnapped a group of people from a restaurant in the heart of Mexico's major tourist resort of Puerto Vallarta, according to officials.
In a statement, the state's attorney general's office said the victims were sitting in a restaurant in a major boulevard at 1am on Monday (local time), when gunmen arrived in two trucks and took them.
It did not clarify how many people were taken, but local media reported as many as 16 people were seized.
The prosecutor's office said it was investigating the incident.
Puerto Vallarta, in the state of Jalisco, is one of Mexico's top holiday destinations, luring all-inclusive tourists and high-end sunseekers to its beaches.
The state is also home to the Jalisco New Generation cartel, which has become one of the country's most powerful drug gangs in recent years.
