State police officers patrol a beach as part of a security operation to prevent criminal acts in the face of a wave of violence and protect tourists who visit the beach for Easter vacations in Acapulco, Guerrero state, Mexico on April 15, 2025.

Mexican police discovered four decapitated bodies in an abandoned vehicle next to a government building in the southern state of Guerrero, authorities reported on Thursday (local time).

Clashes between drug cartels plague the region, where Mexico's major port and beach resort Acapulco is located.

The bodies, wrapped in plastic, were found in a car next to a back entrance of the state congress building in Guerrero's capital Chilpancingo, sources from the state prosecutor's office said.
