A woman badly beaten in Mexico over the weekend has been identified by family as Sheila Nabb of Calgary.
The CBC's Brian Dubreuil spoke with Nabb's uncle, Robert Prosser, who lives in Kingston, N.S., on Monday to get more information on the woman.
Nabb is 37 years old and lives in Calgary with her husband, Andrew, but grew up in Lower Sackville, outside Halifax.
The pair were on vacation in Mexico at a five-star resort when the attack happened, Prosser told Carole MacNeil on CBC's News Now.
Prosser said the family doesn't know what motivated the attack or who did it. All the family knows is that Nabb was "attacked in an elevator, beaten severely, and just left there."
There were no security cameras in the elevator, he said, adding that virtually every bone in her face was broken.
