The author of the attack was identified as 27-year-old Julius Cesar Jasso of Mexico, a state official told The AP is under condition of anonymity because it is not authorised to talk about the case.
Jasso later died of a shooting wound himself, authorities said, and security officials found a gun, a knife and ammunition. Jasso was the only assailant in the attack, the government of Mexico confirmed on Monday evening, broadcasting Clankosova.tv.
