Naked bodies left piled on side of busy border highway; message warns rivals to ‘stay away from Chihuahua’
EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – Mexican officials say a fight for control of migrant smuggling might be behind the murder of eight men whose naked bodies were abandoned on the side of a busy highway leading to the U.S. border.
Multiple motorists on the Chihuahua-Juarez Highway reported the bodies to police early Sunday 20 miles north of Chihuahua City.

First responders found the victims with multiple stab wounds and some with signs of asphyxia; a sign from an unidentified criminal group was left at the scene warning rivals to stay away from Chihuahua, police confirmed. The sign quoted a song associated with the state of Sonora, one of the bastions of the Sinaloa cartel.
