MEXICO CITY, Mar 21 (AFP): Police in northern Mexico have found the bullet-riddled bodies of seven men who were killed near the US border after a drug smuggling run, authorities said Thursday.
The bodies were found Wednesday afternoon in a pick-up truck on a hill in an area called El Ejemplo in the state of Sonora, near the border with the US state of Arizona, police said.
An eighth man who survived the attack told the authorities that he and the victims had just moved drugs "when they were intercepted by several subjects who attacked them," Sonora's investigative police said in a statement.
