Gruesome Discovery: Hacked-Up Bodies Found in Vehicles on Mexico's Gulf Coast
An undetermined number of hacked-up bodies were found in two vehicles abandoned on a bridge in Mexico’s Gulf coast state of Veracruz, with a banner left on the side of one truck suggesting the victims might be Guatemalans and claiming authorship of the crime to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel. The killings are believed to involve a "settling of scores" between gangs, and the state has seen an increase in violence as cartels battle for turf. Authorities have reinforced security in the region and are pursuing those responsible for the criminal acts.
