Jonas Brothers Mexican concert cancelled

The Jonas Brothers have cancelled a concert in the Mexican city of Monterrey because of security fears.

Concert promoter Live Nation said the October 21 concert was cancelled over “a series of unfortunate events” in Monterrey and out of concern for fans.

Monterrey is Mexico’s richest city and long one of its safest, but a wave of drug violence has shocked residents. More than 400 people have been killed this year in the state of Nuevo Leon, where Monterrey is located.
