Officials have found at least 20 bodies in three vehicles abandoned in Mexico's second most populous city Guadalajara, the state prosecutor's office said Thursday.
"The first reports are of at least 20" cadavers, said Lino Gonzalez, spokesperson for the prosecutor's office in the western state of Jalisco. Guadalajara, population four million, is the state capital.
The bodies were discovered downtown one day after two vehicles containing 16 charred bodies were found in Culiacan, capital of the violence-wracked northwestern state of Sinaloa, in what officials called a macabre message between rival drug gangs.
