FIVE severed human heads were thrown onto a dance floor in a crowded disco in western Mexico, officials said.

Authorities blamed the grisly scene on rival drug gangs.

“Hooded men dressed in black stormed into a bar, fired into the air and threw down five heads,” said Rosaura Trujillo, a spokeswoman for the Michoacan state prosecutor's office.

The men also left a card with the message: “The family does not kill for money. It does not kill women. It does not kill innocents. It kills only those who deserve to die. Everyone take note - this is divine justice.”

According to the local radio station Formato 21, the club, known as “Sol y Sombra,” or “Sun and Shade,” is a favourite of drug gangs.

When I next want a big night on the town, please remind me to give Mexico a miss...

Sounds like a pretty wild party.

Mexico seems to be devolving.

If you gamble, I hear Mexico is a great place to get ahead.

Sounds like a movie by Quentin Tarantino.

Why travle? MS13 and other gangs can bring such highlights to your town.

I wonder if the culprits were mooselimbs. It fits the mooselimb's MO.

This was Mexico? I thought maybe it was homecoming at an all Muslim high school.

[Romanov]

Interesting. Some sort of vigilantes? Any chance the owners of the heads deserved it?

Reminds me of my favorite headline: "Headless Body in Topless Bar"

[Dog Gone]

I assume the hat dance continued.

Does the Cerveza have a head on it?

[Hilltop]

Going to a bar to get head, how novel.
