In one of the main avenues in Boca del Rio city, Veracruz, Mexico, police found 35 bodies in two trucks abandoned on a bridge located opposite the Las Americas mall, and the authorities assume that was a crime by Los Zetas cartel.

Veracruz attorney general Reynaldo Escobar Pérez said that “the bodies were stacked, tied, gagged, with garbage bags on their heads; the bodies show signs of violence, including torture. As an official said all victims had criminal records for kidnapping, murder, drug trafficking and organized crime.”

The attorney also confirmed that “There are 35 bodies found, 23 are men and 12 women.”
