Authorities in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca are investigating why a street dog was found chewing on a severed human arm in recent days. The case bears similarities to another in Zacatecas where a dog was filmed carrying a severed human head in its mouth.
Last week, authorities in Oaxaca city responded to a 911 call about a dog chewing a human extremity. When police responded to the scene, they found a black dog with a human arm in its mouth. Authorities have not been able to match the missing arm to a victim.
According to Infobae, the current police theory suggests the dog found the arm on the banks of the Atoyac River, a burgeoning clandestine grave site.
The case comes weeks after a similar incident took place in the central state of Zacatecas, where locals recorded a street dog carrying a severed human head. The dog in Zacatecas found the head at a crime scene where cartel gunmen left body parts next to a posterboard threatening their rivals.
In another similar case, a dog chewing a human extremity led to the discovery of a mass grave in the state of Guanajuato and was linked to turf wars being fought by cells of Cartel Jalisco New Generation against rivals.
