10 more bodies found at mass grave near US-Mexico border, bringing total to 58, officials say

Forty-two bodies were initially discovered in a mass grave near the beach resort town approximately 200 miles from Phoenix. Last weekend, the group Searching Mothers of Sonora said it discovered six additional bodies and that armed men forced them to abandon their search.

Anyone who believes a family member of theirs is among the dead may make a complaint and complete a DNA test at one of the Attorney General’s Departments of Expert Services. These are located in the towns of San Luis Rio Colorado, Caborca, Nogales, Agua Prieta, Hermosillo, Guaymas, Ciudad Obregón and Navojoa.

"Puerto Peñasco, located about a three-hour drive southwest of Phoenix, has been a relatively safe haven in the past few years, in an area that is otherwise known as a busy, and very profitable, drug and human smuggling route into Arizona.

But there has been an occasional cartel-related gunfight over the years. The city was the scene of especially heavy fighting among criminal groups and the Mexican military in the early 2010s."

"The city is a key source of tourism revenue for the state, but an increasing number of visitors come from Arizona, making it a priority for both states."
