To: slapshot

The two survivors have already been rescued. So it looks like:

Two Americans dead, 1 guy, 1 gal.

Two Americans rescued by Mexican police: 1 guy, 1 gal, one of the two is seriously wounded. (Seems like 1 report said the wounded was the guy rescued.)

1 Mexican woman who apparently had the bad luck to be nearby the scene of the kidnapping was shot & killed.

1 cartel member wounded and captured in the rescue.

Some reports indicate the Americans were mistaken for Haitian drug smugglers encroaching on the cartel’s territory.

Clarification(s) / updates likely.
