MEXICO CITY — A Mexican police official says a Texas man has been found beaten to death in the trunk of a car in a Mexican border town.
Tamaulipas chief homicide investigator Fernando Miranda says 25-year-old Ramiro Torres Hernandez was found dead Friday on a back road in Reynosa.
Guerrero said Monday that Torres was a resident of Pharr, Texas, but it was unclear if he was a U.S. citizen. He was identified by a sister who lives in Mexico.
The U.S. Embassy had no information on the case.
The Tamaulipas investigator said a cousin told police he was with Torres at a store when two armed men forced him into a car Wednesday. Police were investigating why the cousin did not report the abduction.
Miranda said the motive was unknown but could involve drugs.
