A group of gunmen in Mexico overpowered two state police officers, threatened them, and then repeatedly beat them with a wooden paddle with complete impunity. State officials attempted to deny the incident.
The incident took place this week in the southern part of the Mexican coastal state of Quintana Roo. The state is located just north of the Mexican border with Belize. According to the local news outlet, a group of police officers were patrolling the rural areas of the state when a group of gunmen surrounded a squad of officers. The gunmen kidnapped two of the police officers who were identified only as J.A.V. and J.C.
After taking the officers, the gunmen threatened them and then used a wooden paddle to beat them on their legs and buttocks before releasing them. The use of a paddle is a common method of punishment frequently used by drug cartels in Mexico.
In late May 2023, a group of gunmen left three severed human heads outside of a Mexican army located base in Cancun, Breitbart Texas reported.
