Tijuana Probes String of Killings After Head Found in Cooler With Alleged Narcomessage

Authorities are processing several crime scenes as media report an unconfirmed message that names the state security chief.

Overview

  • Two bodies with signs of violence were dumped in Camino Verde, including one wrapped with arms bound and another apparently cut, according to official reports.
  • A human head was discovered in a cooler under a bridge in Colonia Francisco Villa next to a green card that local outlets describe as a narcomessage.
  • Semanario Zeta reported the note mentioned General Laureano Carrillo Rodríguez and alleged collusion by state elements, a claim not confirmed by authorities.
  • Later that night, police found two beaten, bound female victims in Colonia Obrera, and homicide investigators transferred the unidentified bodies to SEMEFO for autopsy.
  • In a separate case inside a home in Anexa Divina Providencia, officers located a body wrapped in blankets and detained a 50-year-old man, while broader searches at other scenes yielded no announced arrests.
