2 Americans dead, 2 found alive in Mexico kidnapping

According to the governor of Tamaulipas, two of the four Americans who authorities say were kidnapped in Mexico have been found dead. According to a US official, one of the two survivors is severely injured. According to the governor, a Mexican woman was also killed by a stray bullet during the kidnapping on Friday. The group of friends traveled from South Carolina so one of them — a mother of six — could undergo a medical procedure, two family members told CNN. They were “placed in a vehicle and taken from the scene by armed men” in the border city of Matamoros, according to the FBI. Investigators believe a Mexican cartel likely mistook them for Haitian drug smugglers, a US official said. https://www.bridgeofsolutions.com/
