Cancun, Q.R. — Three men believed involved in the murder of two were arrested Thursday in Cancun. Authorities have confirmed the arrests of the trio who they believe are responsible for the murder of two men and attempted murder of one woman hours earlier.
According to information provided by the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE), agents of the Investigative Police and the State Secretariat of Public Security (SSP) arrested all three from SM 245.
During their arrests, police seized two loaded handguns along with their cell phones, which are now part of their investigation.
