Four Americans were shot at by gunmen in northern Mexico and then kidnapped shortly after crossing the border, reported news agency Reuters adding the authorities of both the countries were working to locate them. 

As per the report, the four unidentified Americans were in a white minivan with North Carolina licence plates when they entered Matamoros, Tamaulipas, on Friday, said the US Embassy in Mexico seeking public’s help in identifying the kidnappers. 

The armed men fired on the passengers shortly after their vehicle crossed into Mexico and then herded them into another vehicle before fleeing the scene, the embassy said.
