Two of the US citizens kidnapped in Mexico last week have been found dead, reports say.

The third victim is wounded, and the fourth is alive and apparently unharmed, reporter Claudio Ochoa Huerta tweeted on Tuesday morning.

News of the victims’ discovery comes days after the foursome from South Carolina was abducted in Matamoros last week.

One of the travelers, Latavia “Tay” McGee, was reportedly scheduled for a tummy tuck surgery on the day of the violent kidnapping.
