Twenty bodies were discovered — including four decapitated corpses hanging from a bridge near a plastic bag of human heads — after a bloody day of cartel violence in Mexico over the weekend.

All 20 of the victims were male and had gunshot wounds, the Sinaloa State Attorney General’s Office said.

Five of the bodies were decapitated, with four of those corpses left strung up by their feet along a highway bridge near Culiacán, the largest city in Sinaloa state, authorities said.

Four decapitated bodies were found hanging by their feet from a bridge in Mexico over the weekend.
The 15 other bodies, including the fifth missing his head, were discovered just yards away in a van.

The van was plastered with a banner referencing the ongoing wars between rival drug cartels in Sinaloa, authorities said.

The victims were part of a total of 27 murders reported in Sinaloa on Sunday, including a young man and two women in an armed attack in Culiacán.

A brutal wave of cartel warfare has erupted in Culiacan, Mexico, as the once-feared Sinaloa Cartel crumbles under internal chaos triggered by the shocking kidnapping of a top leader—an operation allegedly spearheaded by none other than El Chapo's own son. The abducted figure was swiftly handed over to U.S. authorities via private jet, a move that has ignited a catastrophic blood feud between rival factions. Streets once considered safe have become battlegrounds, with the discovery of 16 mutilated bodies stuffed in a van offering grim proof of the lawlessness now ruling the region. And while Mexican officials insist they're regaining control, the bodies continue to pile up, highlighting a disturbing reality: as the cartels grow bolder, the government’s promises ring increasingly hollow.
