Mexico temple gunman ranted about pyramid's gruesome history to hostages: 'Don't move, or I'll sacrifice you'

Julio César Jasso, 27, who was reportedly obsessed with Adolf Hitler, shouted as he pointed a gun at the terrified tourists atop the Pyramid of the Moon at Mexico's Teotihuacan ruins, just outside Mexico City. 

"This was built for sacrifices. Not for visiting and taking a f******, s***** photo," he said in a video taken by a filmed by a tourist.

"See. I keep my word. Two f****** Koreans are dead there. I sacrificed them like dogs," he said. 

"You all, s***, who've come from f****** Europe, you're not going back," he continued.

In total, 13 people were injured. The nature of the other injures weren't disclosed but some people fell when the shooting started, including some who were climbing on the pyramids.

Jasso, who acted alone, shot and killed himself. Authorities later found a gun, a knife and ammunition at the scene.
