- KTLA 5's Lauren Lyster has the latest after relatives have identified three bodies found in a well as those of two Australian surfers and one American who went missing last weekend, Mexican authorities said Sunday.

Stay out of Mexico people. Why even risk it, even in the “safe” areas?
Mexico is here now. No need to go there.
38 million people visit Mexico every year......
@@diegoflores9237theyre all dumb for doing so. A lot of risk for no reward. Makes no sense
@@diegoflores9237 many on cruise ships
@@rigorocks23Mexico is the most visited country by Americans
So these petty "thieves" killed 3 athletic, grown men execution style, removed the wheels from their truck, kept the tires, put the wheels back on the truck, and then burned the truck?
Oh, and the property owner of the place these 3 surfers were staying at was killed 2 weeks prior and dumped in the same well as the 3 surfers?
Yeah, nothing shady about that story...
Unfortunately 90% of us dont have the brain to see beyond what we are shown on our screens even though this one is very easy to figure out. 😢
Yes, definitely more to this tragic story.
I figured it was just average everyday cartel violence lol
Right? 🤷🏻♀️
Did they go there to buy something illegal
99% of people think that’s dumb. Why steal tires when I can take your truck?
its hearsay, its stupid for the news to even mention it, now look at these comments, everyones focusing on that instead of the fact that 3 people were murdered in mexico
I think its for truck and they tried to fight back and this is cartel we are talking about.
Lol right? That would make more sense ya think?
Because it's a "story".
Tires are a red herring.😮
OMG I am sick at heart for the mothers of these poor men!!!!! The very definition of a senseless tragedy....
When will they learn Mexico is no longer a safe vacation spot R. I. P. 🕊️🕊️🕊️
Has never been
@@KnightSoulsG Not true. A few decades ago it was, before you were even born.
@jdsheleg8332 No country is truly safe and even whenever you're talking about there were still criminals
Why go to a country where the country is run by criminals or killers.
What hard data do u have to make that determination. Your county has the same amount of murders last 30 days
This is horrible and unacceptable.
What a waste of human life. It is hard to believe there are animals out there that could be so cruel and heartless. God Bless these guys and their loved ones!
Tires still on the burned truck? Cover up maybe
Cartel activity. These folks 2:36 wandered around. Now everyone is covering it up. Our authorities know the truth but also sponsor the bad guys. Any questions?
Why are you focusing on that? Maybe they were angry being denied and wanted to send a message?
@@mike4402I live in El Paso Texas right across from Juarez Mexico. I myself who is Mexican American born in the area, I don’t go to Mexico myself. If you don’t know the “safe” spots, you’re asking for trouble! Especially if you have a nice ride! I have a Chrysler 300 with nice wheels, I will definitely have a high chance of being either robbed or killed for it. Unless you’re a local or have family, you shouldn’t go to Mexico. If I go, it’s with people who know the area and I go on their car. My friend took his lifted truck to Juarez because his girlfriend was in the hospital. He got robbed at gun point at a traffic light. He didn’t argue, gave him the keys, he knew what would happen if he tried to do something about it. Especially with his child being with him.
@@mike4402Denied for what?
had gps on it from toyota .... they knew it was not for tires. preppy adrenaline junkies seeking adventure looked too far if they were found in a water-well. only the ones who go where the wise ones say not to go, (only travel on foot) end up there.
So sad. I remember driving into Mexico as a kid with my family, this was in 1968. I was 12 yrs old, and we stopped along a beach where some buildings were being constructed. There was a mariachi band playing, and I think they were setting up for a party later that afternoon. My dad was talking to the men and they let us kids play on the beach. There were hundreds of sand dollars, and we asked if we could take some. The men laughed and said take as many as you want, but my father said we could each take only 1. Everyone was so nice to us, it's so sad to think there is so much crime and misery now. I think most if it is due to drugs. I really hate people who use illegal drugs. They ruin so many innocent lives.
Aim your hate at the cartels and drug dealers selling the stuff
They wouldn’t be selling, if there wasn’t demand for it
@@KAzik10001they wouldn’t be taking it if there wasn’t anyone selling it. you can’t point in a single direction and blame the drug problem on a single particular thing, but history clearly shows us the root of most evil is money and your average drug user definitely doesn’t have any financial incentive to get high.
@@n_nu_u3984there wouldn’t be demand for it, and no one to supply it, if the stuff didn’t exist. But it does and as long as people can grow it they’re going to use and spread it to others and when people get their hands on it they won’t forget the feeling and will keep seeking. Reality is most addicts aren’t enjoying it and want to quit, wether they admit it or not. It’s not as simple as it seems and blaming the low level users is ridiculous. Get mad at the way the gov/legal system handle this problem, and why they refuse to handle it differently(they cause it).
You never hear about beer companies killing anyone
If every citizen is fleeing from Mexico, why would you think it's a good idea to go there for a vacation? 🤔
4 million americans in Mexico on any give day. Half live there and are very alive. The murder rate of Americans in Mexico is 10 times less than in America. Look it up. State department stats.
That's The Million Dollar Question, Man..
Every citizen huh 🤡😂🤣
What about the 130 million Mexicans in Mexico? What about the 200,.000 deported USA nationals from Mexico living there illegally. Orr the other 2.2 million that moved to Mexico looking for lower rent 🤡😂
So, the thieves killed the men fkr their trucks tires.....which they didnt take. Any other reasons you can think of to get wacked in Mexico?
That's not true. people from other countries are pouring in from the Mexican border that's what it is.
If this was a robbery for their truck tires, why are the tires' rims on the burned out truck?
They didn’t seem the smartest people. They were caught using their phone.
I live in Mexico and my advice is don’t get drunk. Don’t hang out with people You don’t know stay in large groups. Don’t meet women at a bars and stay in the hotel bar.
basically don't do anything
They were surfing when this happened
Sounds like east Los
Yeah but this happened because they drove to the beach. There was no drinking, bars or women involved.
Easier advance. Don't go to Mexico
Don’t visit Mexico. 🇲🇽
I wouldn't step foot in Mexico!
@@dianabeurman364 I’m sure Mexico appreciates that.
Let's see if people will listen to you . Mexico received 38 million visitors a year in 2023
STAY IN THE US
AHAHAH, you think this can't happen to you here?
Open borders Biden 😅
You are 10x more likely to get killed in the states as an American. 80% chance for an early death due to fast food as well. Get a brain folks
The news in San Diego said that it was a cartel and they killed the homeowner too for his land to transport migrants by boat to the us
@@thelonecabbage7834 At least we have guns to defend ourselves here
Why anyone would go to Mexico is beyond me.
Why would u not recommend it. Why is the daily # of american people over 4 million?
You do realize that there is more crime that happens in the United States than Mexico by violent gang members such as in the south side of chicago or being on a subway train in New York don''t you? Try again buddy
over the counter steroids, cheap booze and easy women
The trip of a lifetime..... to _Baja_ ?
@@coffeecool5190 The woman blow up like balloons though once they get to eating their beans and cheese
I stop Surfing Baja years ago...too many close calls!
Did you all use a ‘file photo’ of some unrelated burned out pickup????
How sad! I used to go down to Rosa Rito and Ensenada all the time back in the day. Had a blast down there but not anymore. It’s too scary down there now.
What scares u?
Ya, maybe in the 1990’s, to go to Tijuana. But now it’s a suicide mission. And you don’t need to cross the border for good surf in San Diego.
@@Chuck-yt7iq I’m not even sure if this was cartel or mafia but one of them has taken over this area. These guys were killed for their wheels. Last time I went my buddies truck was stolen out of the resort parking lot near Puerto Nuevo
@@bigmacfullerton7870 cartels need these trucks by the thousands. The sicarios wouldnt kill americans for a truck. Im sure they stumbled into the wrong of land. It strange though because these guys are not allowed to touch americans. Im sure a few sicarios are dead now as a result of this.
what scares me? Joe Biden “winning a 2nd term”, for starters.
There was a 4th body in the well of a man killed 2 weeks prior. Did they need his tires too.
That rear wheel still has the rim on it .
Something is missing in this story .
A wheel and a rim are the same thing.
That's what I said on my comment and people have a problem with me not believing it!
@@1985cjjeeper I know that !
They said " tires " ...
Its all a cover up. Its cartel land all over the coast. Accidentally stumble perhaps? No tire thieves have a well prepared to bury all resisting vics. Does not make sense.
@@Chuck-yt7iqthat's wjat was said, its a no go zone by cartel activity
the owner of the land where the crime happened was killed weeks ago, there is something bigger, not only tires ........
And many of these are the types of people streaming into our country over the last four years...
It’s almost like they’re escaping that
@@Jason21012escape elsewhere.
The ones reporting made up news? 😮 the KTLA folks stream into our country via mexico?😂
@@Jason21012 says the rich white liberal living in a gated community far away from these people you wouldnt be saying that if you lived in a bad neighborhood even in middle class suburbs the crime rate is going up fast because of them.
if they wanted the tires and rims!! why did they burn the truck!! RIP!! my inoccent SURFER! brothrs!!
they probably found out authorities were after them and the truck was the big clue
Evidence
cuz fake story the tires were clearly not what they wanted...
@@nasolbap-pq4gclol. U watch too many movies. The answer is a lot simpler. Cartel activity. These folks wandered in. 😢
The murderers were caught because the woman was using their cellphone.
I wouldn't go to half of this country.
Mexico? Not a chance.
Enjoy fear and consumption
I DONT BLAME YOU !!!
Okay? I’m sure Mexico will be fine without you there
I call BS. Killed for tires, yet truck was burned with tires still on it. Three people shot in the head, bodies hidden, and we're supposed to believe this "drug deal or cartel assasination" was just an attempted tire robbery?
I see, tires too. I don't understand. I see tires.
maybe eh?
I saw the tires still on the burned-out shell.
But at least they will be together.
Ya. For eternity ++
Stay away from dangerous people and places. Listen to your mother.
She was right you know
Hearing this just breaks my heart! Yet Biden thinks it’s ok to keep that border open? How sickening!
Report is we todd did.
Yeah the spare tire.
Funny, tires are still on the truck?
Those are wheels*, which have rims on the edge*. Tires are the rubber bit that goes on the wheel.
Noticed that as well.
🤔 hmmmmm? Lot more to it than “truck tires.” ? ? ?
I noticed that too , they appear to have been burned off as the rims are still there .. at least on the rear axle assembly...
@@blainelytle341 thet forgot to take them in their hurry to escape. Its not like they took the bodies several miles into a well they have prepares. 😂
@@thelonecabbage7834 I'm sure they know already know the difference between tires & rims. Clearly, the rubber was burned off. I bet the thieves wanted the entire truck and the surfers were trying to defend their property. Tragic outcome!
why did the burnt truck still have it's rims on?
Because they were killed for what they look like. Truck tires are an easy scapegoat to ignore that little fact
Because the rim is part of the wheel as an assembly. They would have to be three piece wheels to be able to remove the rim from the wheel.
The days of carefree day visits to Mexico from the US are over. Different world now.
I’m going next week. You should get off the internet.
Now? Hell, I was warned back in the early 2000's by my trucking company. DO NOT take the truck into Mexico. We had to park in a secure lot and write our tire information down. Even then, you could be killed for that fancy USA gear...
It’s not your grandfather’s Mexico anymore
Why im seeing that truck still have a wheels its been burned?
The Cartel have no problem affording tyres
😂🤣😳
The story doesnt hold water...you would think the tires would be gone, but there they are. Doesnt add up.
🤔🤬
The burned tires were still on the truck!! So were the wheels. WTF
Yeah cause it was a hate crime but god forbid we paint the Mexicans as anything but saints
The tires are on the truck, so ???
Great advertisement for Mexico tourism 🌮🌮🌮🌮
For every one of these we hear there are thousands we don’t ..News only for white doctors
Yeah , Not buying the whole " truck tire " story , as the tires were burned on the truck...
RIP. I have been going to Mexico for over 62 years. And I had to be alert in the USA, Mexico. Bali etc. All 50 USA states.
Back in the 90s, San Diego residents knew and shared with others that for safety, to only cross the border in a convoy. Your 4x4 could very easily be, at gunpoint, by authorities, confiscated in the morning, and be a mexican police car by the afternoon.
Murdered over tires…. In Los Angeles, people get murdered for their tennis shoes, cell phones, even sun glasses. If the State Department could issue a travel advisory for parts of California, they would.
RIP to these three young men.
Ur not wrong
How do the parents come to terms with the loss of 2 sons. Its terrible tragedy. People need to be very careful while traveling to such countries where crime is so high and the people don't value life. RIP.
😔🥺
Rip 🕊 🕊 🕊 sorry for the loss. Pray 🙏
Trucks , especially 4by4 trucks are prime targets in Mexico, some people don’t understand that.
They will take your truck if they find a chance . Just don’t drive a new car or truck simple. Don’t stand out, or appear flashy it grabs a lot of attention.
lada 4x4
My wife was born and raised in Mexico. We live in Arizona, just 3 hours from her home town. We don’t go there.
Does she speak from experience???
They weren’t killed for some worthless tires…
Now is not a time to go abroad, especially Mexico. The federallies are brutal. It’s no longer the USA folks different rules
And yet those people ARE LET INTO OUR COUNTRY with ZERO VETTING.
FJB
To replace our workers for fresh ones. Its all sponsored by both sides of the aisle.
@@Chuck-yt7iq Make America Great Again.
@@HollyMoore-wo2mh Trump 2024 20 million deportation
Trump 24.
So why are the tires still on the truck?
For tires? BS! Lies!
I thought guns were illegal in Mexico!?!
For Americans I guess but not the criminals that live there
The guns come from the US? Your local gun store owner sells it to them
See how well those gun control laws to disarm the citizenry works???
It’s almost like there’s a country to the north of Mexico that loves to arm cartels. Oh wait.
😂😂😂
what a crock of bull💩nobody wanted their tires 🙄unless they was loaded with kilos..
The tires are still on the truck 🙄
Omg everyone knows not to go to Mexico 💁
Where should we go? 😮
kilimanjaro, timbuktu
Over 30 million Americans go annually. I’ve been myself and had a great, safe time. It’s a beautiful country. Let’s not blame a whole country.
@@Chuck-yt7iq if you want to stay alive, not Mexico lol, the world is a big place. I’m sure there are plenty of places not called Mexico lol
@@tyron2854yeah am go to o block and take pictures of the locals locked up in there apartment 😂😂😂
Did the killers remove the tires from the truck before burning it? I don't trust anything the Mexican prosecutor says about motive. The rancher who was reported missing a week before the surfers went missing and whose body was also in the well, what was the motive for his murder? The tires on his truck?
I feel like we're missing a lot of the story.
Yup🤔
These are the same people we allowed to swarm our borders by the thousands.
Not really if they were in Mexico when it happened
Bro the cartels are Americans
The ones reporting on a made up story? The KTLA folks? 😂
The people swarming are from South America crossing through Mexico to reach our border. Where have you been?
@@Chuck-yt7iq So you think they are not DEAD .. MURDERED and it's MADE UP?
Tires? No one gets killed over tires. They're lying.
But the rims are still on the truck 🤔 so they wanted the tires so bad they killed 3 guys then burnt the tires?
No the wheels are on the truck, not just the rims. It would be physically impossible for just the rim to be fastened to the truck. The face (hub face) would have to be attached to the hub and the face to the rim for them to be fastened to the truck.
They saying behind the truck tires this happened.
But there truck rims are still attached. Its more to the story
Yeah media covering for a hate crime against whites. Nothing new
How did they come up with that scenario? Who told who that was it, since the tires were burned with the truck? Hmmm?
for real
Its prescripted. Cartels are sponsored on both sides of the border. We can shut them down in one day if allowed.
Yes, I agree. Probably to ease the danger in people’s minds since most of the walk across border types are thugs. Our commander of chief is allowing thousands across daily
Just tragic. I used to visit Mexico as a young US Marine stationed at Camp Pendleton in the early 1980's. Never felt unsafe. Praying for these young men's loved ones.
It’s not your grandfather’s Mexico anymore. If people are desperate in the USA due to how things are, imagine a 3rd world country like Mexico!
So,they were robbed for their truck tires,because they wanted to burn them?How come the tires are still on the truck?
Its what agencies on both sides need us to know. Dont question it. 😊
They arent
SO HEARTBREAKING
If that’s true, then why are the tires still on the truck?
Then why didn’t they take the truck tires?
Not tires. Liars
So dangerous going into Mexico these days. Such a sad thing to happen to these lovely boys. RIP.
They were men not boys
This, it is extremely tragic .
My most sincere condolences to their families.
Dang tires still on the truck what a b.s story
Man, this is crazy, they were just over the border. I drove the entire Baja back in 2000. Took Mexico 5 down along the Sea of Cortez back when it was nothing but dirt and rocks. The people down there are the best. I feel bad for them the most.
Tons of cartel maneuvers around there. They use the beach. Its all a cover up now.
THE TRUCK TIRES ARE STILL ON THE TRUCK !
People don’t realize how good it is here until they travel outside the country.....
Truck tires?!?! Yeah right
Never drive your vehicle into Mexico ..I was always told that and drove my suburban in and almost lost my truck the first two seconds into Mexico ..the federalis tried to take it the second I crossed the border. Luckily i had been and new to bribe our way by but vehicle was too nice and it was a target the entire trip and we were headed deep into Mexico ..never again
Correct your insurance is voided south of the boarder for the most part.
Fly into Mexico and use Uber to get around
Gotta be smart. Camping in the middle of nowhere in Mexico? C’mon guys.
But they were big strong muscly Aussies
Over their tires? What kind of caca theory is that?
My heart goes out to the families of these young men for their losses. May the deceased all RIP. This world gets a little sadder everyday.
I would not go to Mexico if you paid me.....any amount.
Why would you say its for their yruck tires? The tires are still on the truck. Wuts up?
So sad. I feel horrible for them and their families.
That’s sad 😢 condolences to the family
This is beyond embarrassing for us good people of Baja. More like devastating. Because of those things, the good people like me have to pay for the bad ones.
Many of us have fond memories of Baja. The people were very nice and very helpful. But that was yesterday. Part of the blame goes with the drug demand here in the US. If not for the demand, then no supply. I am hopeful someday things get better.
I hope so.. but Claudia Sheinbaum will be president here and she's Obrador's puppet so sadly more of the same. Greetings to you from San Pedro Mártir. Very sad, indeed.
@@navigator487 I hope so. But Sheinbaum will be president here and she's Obrador's puppet. So sadly more of the same.
@@navigator487 I truly hope so. But Claudia Sheinbaum will be president here and she's the puppet of the current one here so sadly more of the same.
Well.. I'm trying to reply to you @navigator487 but I guess political correctness is removing my comment. I'll try to be more diplomatic: Claudia Sheinbaum will be president here so sadly more of the same.
not sure if for tires - the 4th found in that well was the owner of the property; Cartel activity? I live in San Diego CA and the open border policy under current Admin has made the entire area both sides of the wall dangerous
This is how America will look like if the trend continues
I am sickened by this. Praying for family and friends.
In the US, you get killed for your shoes and in Mexico, you’re killed for tires.
not by white people
Yes. They steal tires and have this whole organization and disposal of bodies. The tire business is so good there. Does it make any sense to u?
who is stealing shoes in the us
The thieves took the tires without removing the wheels? Or did the thieves take the time to reintall the bare wheels? It looks like the tires are missing because flames stole them.
what were the lads doing.camping up on that remote patch on a rough track..were they not hip to treacherous terrain?
Lies maybe a bad drug deal
Nobody mentions it’s an obvious hate crime.
“Truck tires” bro makes total sense. Still mounted on the burned out truck but they killed them over the “tires”
When they said killed for tires, i thought they meant rims. But then the burnt out truck still had rims. Hmmm...
Why didn't they report that a 4th body was found in the same well as the surfers, it was the body of the property owner. Were they 'stealing his tires' too?
Over frickin tires. What the hell is wrong with people!
and, the tires are melted on the rims . . . ???????? 🤔
They feed u bs there. They feed u bs here. Dont be so gullible.
They are evil
@NR-uq3wx they didn’t. That photo showed melted tires still on the rims.
This is why things like border walls actually matter.
What? That’s ridiculous.
Are you forgetting the american crime rates?
Border walls barely do anything. They cut holes in them in 15 minutes and rush in. Assuming that the walls are even up in the first place.
@@debrabrower3864mass shooting in America 😔😳
. I live close to the Tecate crossing. I use to love going to Tecate for lunch. I haven’t crossed the border in over 30 years. I know of too many instances like this.
Why are the tires still on the truck?
The excrement that killed these guys are probably living in a $500.00 a night hotel in N.Y.C. waiting for their benefits courtesy of the Big Guy. There just as dangerous here as they are in Mexico Joey.
lol what does that even mean get some air brother
@@spidersenior It's pretty self explanatory. Read it out loud slowly to yourself if you need to.

How sad my condolences to the families
It’s horrible. 😢😢😢
Country mexico...very dangerous. Not tourism 👎🏽🇲🇽👎🏽 2024. 🇺🇸🕊🇦🇺🕊🕊 💐
People don't delete you for free in Mexico. My suspicion is these guys were up to something they aren't telling us. Drugs, girls etc. have high prices in Mexico and I ain't talking about money.
That's speculation. What is true is that they were in a beach that's known for cartel activity and it's secluded away from help. Also they camped there meaning they were in the cartel zone at dangerous hours
It was literally for the tires on their truck...
Which is very common. If you drive in Mexico, you will very likely be carjacked. This isn't anything new.
Did you not hear that they wanted the tyres?
Dude, your clueless speculation is crass , tasteless and clearly motivated by your own inadequacies
Not true. People are killed for their cars in southern Mexico.
Almost happened to a family member.
Decades ago, an ex coworker who is now a cop traveled home to Agua Caliente with a firearm under his car seat. That is a felony in Mexico. The truck he was driving was new and even he felt he could be deleted on a highway or toll road for his truck.
