Three bodies were identified by relatives Sunday as those of two Australians and an American shot dead during a suspected botched robbery during a surfing trip to Mexico, authorities said.
The trio were believed to have been murdered during an attempt to steal their pick-up truck, state prosecutor Maria Elena Andrade said at a press conference.The bodies “all have a hole in their head made by a firearm projectile,“ Andrade said, adding that the friends had previously visited Mexico several times without any problems.
Another corpse found at the site had been there longer and was unconnected to the others, officials said. A missing poster shared on social media said Callum Robinson was 33 and his brother Jake was 30. It named their friend as Jack Carter Rhoad, aged 30. “We offer our hearts, support and prayers to the Robinson and Rhoad Families, as well as all who loved Callum, Jake, and Jack,“ it said.Baja California is known for its inviting beaches, and its resorts are popular with US tourists, partly because of their proximity to the border.
