Mexican cartel allegedly takes responsibility for kidnapping of 4 Americans abc15
A powerful Mexican cartel has allegedly taken responsibility for the kidnapping of four U.S. citizens, and the killing of two of them, in the Mexican border city of Matamoros.
The note said some Gulf Cartel members were responsible for the kidnapping and killings and apologized for their actions. Three sources confirm to ABC News that the five men were taken into custody by Tamaulipas State Police, where they remain. Police allegedly found two weapons inside the truck when they detained the five men -- an AK-47 and an AR-15 -- as well as four AK-47 magazines, three AR-15 magazines and cartridges of different calibers, according to a copy of the police report from Mexican authorities obtained by ABC News from a source close to the investigation.
Soon after crossing the border,"unidentified gunmen fired upon the passengers in the vehicle," and then put the four Americans in another car and fled, the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City said. During the three days they were held, the Americans were transferred to various places, including a medical clinic, in order to create confusion and avoid rescue efforts, according to the governor of Tamaulipas, Américo Villarreal.
