CARTEL BLAMED FOR BODY FOUND IN BAG
The corpse of a man was found wrapped in a plastic bag in the port
city of Veracruz in what police said was the latest killing in a wave
of drug-related violence across Mexico.
Next to the body was a note signed "Nueva Gente," purportedly a drug
gang, threatening the Zetas, a gang of enforcers for the Gulf cartel.
Mexico has experienced a wave of violence as rival cartels fight for
trafficking routes.
