Missing woman’s remains identified in Cancún case

Cancún, Quintana Roo — The remains of Guadalupe del Pilar López Ortiz, who was reported missing in Cancún, Quintana Roo on September 27 of this year, have been identified. Her missing person file has been deactivated as a result.

The Quintana Roo State Attorney General’s Office announced the development through social media, stating: “The #FGEQuintanaRoo deactivates missing person files for Isaí Eduardo Poot Salas, Esteban Elías Poot Salas, Gael Antonio Cú Martínez and Guadalupe del Pilar López Ortiz, who have been located. We appreciate your collaboration.”

López Ortiz was a 25-year-old Mexican woman with fair skin, slim build, black hair dyed red, light brown eyes, standing 1.55 meters tall and weighing 50 kilograms. She had several distinctive tattoos including an image of three children on her right collarbone, a rose on her right bicep, butterflies on her right forearm, the letters “K” and “G,” a feather on her left forearm, and more butterflies on her left ankle. Authorities had not reported what she was wearing when last seen.
