Cancun, Quintana Roo — The body of a man wrapped in blankets was discovered Monday morning on Avenida Bonampak, next to the Candelario Lira sports complex in Cancun.
Residents of the Supermanzana 75 neighborhood reported the find around 8 a.m., prompting a large police response. Municipal police officers confirmed the presence of a male body of medium build with dark skin.
According to initial reports, the victim was wrapped in a blanket and covered with black plastic bags. Authorities cordoned off the area and requested the intervention of the State Prosecutor’s Office.
