Decapitated human heads and burned corpses were found as 15 people were reported killed in Mexico's Baja California state, plagued by Mexican drug cartels.

According to The Daily Star, the murders occurred in several different neighborhoods of Tijuana in Baja California in a little more than a day.

The State Investigation Agency said the first case happened in the early hours of Sunday, June 26, with two human heads - a male and a female - found on Prolongación Segunda street in front of El Mirador's La Isla residential complex.

Authorities also found cardboard with a message from La Menchiza that read: "This is for all the whores who support the scourge in Playas. There is already a new administration."

Human remains, including a female head, torso, and other body parts, were also found inside a sack. Human remains were also discovered inside two plastic boxes left in front of Conalep High School in Villa Floresta. One of the boxes contained the torso of a man aged between 65 and 70, while the other had two female legs.

Death Toll in Mexico's Baja California State Amid Wars Between Mexican Drug Cartels

A few days before the end of June, a total of 175 violent deaths were recorded in Tijuana in Baja California, making June the city's bloodiest month of 2022.

These deaths also mean that a total of 1,241 intentional homicides have now been recorded so far in the state of Baja California this year.

In April, around 200 soldiers had been deployed to Tijuana to fight the ongoing wars between Mexican drug cartels in the city, according to Border Report.

General Francisco Javier Hernández Almanza, the head of Mexico's National Guard in Baja California, earlier said the conflict over control of production, distribution, and sales of drugs by Mexican drug cartels in Baja California "generated a large number of homicides as a result of these activities."

Hernández Almanza noted that there are now more than 3,500 soldiers in Tijuana. He said the soldiers will be dispatched across the city to do vehicle stops and checkpoints "as a way to try and reduce violent events."

"We've had positive results, I don't know how many, but we've recovered weapons and drugs," Hernández Almanza added.
