CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AFP) – At least five bodies were found in an unmarked grave in the northern border city of Ciudad Juarez in Mexico's Chihuahua state, where four more people were found executed, police said Saturday.
"A hidden grave was found with at least five lifeless male bodies that had been shot by armed men who had taken them hostage earlier," the office of public security in Ciudad Juarez said.
Police did not rule out the possibility of uncovering more bodies near the grave, located in the outskirts of this city of 1.3 million, which has emerged as the country's most violent with upwards of 1,600 killings in 2008.
More than 1,000 people have been killed so far this year in suspected drug attacks amid the government's crackdown on warring cartels, particularly in and around Ciudad Juarez, a major distribution center for drugs bound for the United States.

There is always so much violence in that city and usually it is realted to drug dealing. When I listen to Mexican news, it sounds like it is always about deaths in Juarez. I remember the news about the women in Juarez and the killer old ladies.
