Mexican authorities discovered at least 15 bodies in a garbage ditch outside of the city of Monterrey, said David Perales, spokesman for the Nuevo Leon state investigation agency.

The agency suspects the dead were killed by drug cartels, Perales said, speaking in a telephone interview from Monterrey, which is 280 miles south of San Antonio, Texas. Officials are investigating whether there were more victims, he said.
