ACAPULCO, Mexico — Four men with their hands and feet tied and heads covered in duct tape were thrown 600 feet to their deaths from a bridge Friday, authorities said as Mexico’s increasingly bloody drug battles reached a new level of cruelty and intimidation.
The four were among 13 people slain Friday in Guerrero state, which has seen a spike in violence since rival factions of the Beltran Leyva cartel began fighting over territory in the wake of leader Arturo Beltran Leyva’s death in 2009.
