墨西哥社交媒体网红塞萨尔·加斯特卢姆在直播期间被枪手射杀[1]。事件发生在锡那罗亚州首府库利亚坎一家肯德基炸鸡餐厅停车场,周二晚间有两名男子骑摩托车抵达现场,其中一人拔枪向加斯特卢姆开火[1]。加斯特卢姆在TikTok平台拥有超过650,000粉丝[1],作案嫌疑人已逃离现场[1]。
当局表示这起杀害与贩毒集团暴力有关[1]。根据调查,加斯特卢姆曾发布视频暗示与某犯罪组织派系有关[1]。墨西哥总统克劳迪娅·谢因鲍姆就此事表态,称"必须逮捕施暴者",并指出"我们必须查明这起令人厌恶的谋杀为何发生"[1]。
这是一年多来第二起内容创作者在直播中被枪杀的事件,反映出犯罪集团针对网红的更大暴力趋势[1]。2025年5月,23岁美妆网红瓦莱丽亚·马克斯在哈利斯科州一家美容沙龙进行TikTok直播时遭枪杀[1]。
Mexican TikTok personality Cesar Gastelum was fatally shot by a gunman during a livestream broadcast Tuesday evening in a parking lot of a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in Culiacan, the capital of Sinaloa state [1]. Two men on a motorcycle arrived at the scene, with one of them opening fire on the content creator, who had amassed more than 650,000 followers on the platform [1]. The suspect fled the area following the shooting [1].
Authorities have linked the killing to drug cartel violence [1]. According to officials, Gastelum had previously posted videos suggesting he was connected to a faction of a criminal organization [1]. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded to the incident by stating, "The perpetrators must be arrested" and "We must find out why this abominable murder happened" [1]. The killing marks the second livestreamed shooting of a content creator in more than a year, reflecting an escalating pattern of violence by criminal groups targeting social media influencers [1]. In May 2025, 23-year-old makeup influencer Valeria Marks was killed during a TikTok livestream from a beauty salon in Jalisco state [1].
