Gay couple 'shot in Mexican street for holding hands' accuse Mexican media of 'cover-up' over botched robbery reports

A gay couple claim they were shot as they walked hand-in-hand through a Mexican resort in what they believe was a homophobic attack .



Carl Blea was shot in the bum cheek as him and husband Marc Lange walked back to their condo in Puerto Vallarta in the early hours of Saturday morning.



They say that they were confronted by a man who began yelling at them before he suddenly pulled a gun and quickly dived for safety, dragging Mr Lange with him.



But Mr Blea was shot in his right bum cheek, which then flew out through his thigh.
