As a border city, El Paso has a large Mexican-American population and strong ties to Mexico, making this incident a concern for local residents. The fact that the Mexican government is seeking a thorough investigation suggests that they are taking a firm stance on protecting the rights and safety of their nationals, even when they are in the United States.
