A tourist was pelted with water and abuse by crowds outside a popular Mexican tourist attraction over her shameful act.
Yesterday, frightening footage surfaced of an unnamed woman being led through a jeering crowd, tugging at her hair and throwing items at her. Some appear to be forcibly escorting her from the site, others keeping the mobs at bay. The episode occurred at the popular attraction of the Kukulcán Pyramid, also known as El Castillo, in the Yucatan.
The woman, visiting the site, had earlier been seen climbing to the top of the pyramid.

Since 2008 it has been prohibited to climb the monuments. Particularly the Castillo, which at 25m is the tallest in the Chichen Itza archaeological site.
