TIJUANA, Mexico, Sept. 29 (UPI) -- Sixteen bodies found at two locations in a Mexican border town Monday bore the marks of organized crime killings, authorities said.
A source in the Baja California attorney general's office said four men's bodies were discovered at 6:45 a.m. in Tijuana's Colonia Sepanal neighborhood, and the corpses of 11 men and a woman turned up in an empty lot in the city's Otay Constituyentes neighborhood, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.
A sign left with the first group stated: "I am not a traitor, but I don't like to hang around with cowards." One left with the second group said: "This is what will happen to all the people that cooperate with the Ingeniero, because of their big mouths."
El Ingeniero is the nickname of Fernando Sanchez Arellano, the reputed leader of the Arellano Felix cartel, which has been decimated by internal feuding, the newspaper said.
It was not disclosed how the victims died.
