Mexican officials reported that two migrants have been shot to death inside a car in Southern Mexico on 2nd December. It is believed that a migrant smuggler was also in the car.

In southern Mexico, two migrants were discovered dead in a car on Friday, according to the police.

Officials think the migrant smuggler who was also in the car but managed to flee was the intended target.

The two migrants were discovered dead in a car that was transporting them from a location near the Suchiate river, which separates Mexico and Guatemala, to the city of Tapachula, according to a law enforcement officer in the southern state of Chiapas.
