When I first saw this story, for some reason it reminded me of the 1983 James Bond movie (starring Roger Moore), Octopussy.

Fox News posted:

LOS CABOS, Mexico –  Francisco Rafael Arellano Felix, the eldest brother of Mexico's once-feared Arellano Felix drug clan, was shot to death in the Baja beach resort of Los Cabos by a gunman wearing a clown costume, authorities said Saturday. 

A photo from the scene showed his body sprawled on the tiled floor of the open-sided, beachfront house, covered by a sheet. 

An official of the Baja California Sur state prosecutor's office said Saturday that the killer wore a clown costume complete with a wig and a round red nose. The official was not authorized to be quoted by name.

Maybe MI6 (Her Majesty's Secret Service) is operating in Mexico?
