A staggering aftermath of violence met authorities on a Mexican highway Sunday morning, on the road between Monterrey and Reynosa. Forty-nine bodies were found at the entrance to San Juan, missing their heads, hands, and feet.
The Associated Press reports that “100% Zeta” was tagged with spraypaint on a nearby archway. While the first suspects are the brutal warring drug cartels, state Attorney General Adrian de la Garza told AP that he did not rule out the possibility that the victims, discovered 75 miles southwest of the Roma, Texas, border crossing, were U.S.-bound migrants.
Authorities are conducting DNA tests to identify the unrecognizable victims, who are thought to have been killed within 2 days before they were discovered.
